The community for this game tends to have a weird way they apply these terms tbh. It usually refers to the types of content you primarily interact with, rather than the amount of time you spend with it. I don't know why it's that way and I've always found it kind of odd myself, but its probably where some of the confusion in this thread is stemming from.

'Casual' usually refers to people who primarily just do roulette content, MSQ, crafting, roleplay etc. Doesn't matter if you have 2000 hours crafting or can recite every line of dialogue in the story, if it's all you really do you're still considered 'casual'

'Hardcore' is typically reserved for people who clear savage tiers on a scale of days or weeks, and clear current ultimates. You can spend 6 hours a week playing the game and still be considered hardcore by the community.
