So yeah I’m kinda curious what game has given people the longest period they’ve been able to play on SD without needing to plug the charger in. For me, it doesn’t matter if it’s a AAA game, AA or some indie pixelated game that only a couple MB of storage. Most game last a couple minutes, maybe an hour, but it burns out pretty quick. It’s understandable because the SD is doing a lot and they can be taxing but I’m curious how long someone’s managed to last unplugged. Also if there are any ways to improve it outside of getting a portable charger

    I got the longest playtime with Darkest Dungeon without fiddling much. To reduce battery drain you can lower the max tdp for wattage, reduce refreshrate/fps und brightness, lower your graphics settings and maybe use some of the third party tools like cryo utilities (even though I don’t do that myself).

      I got around 6-6,5 hours of battery life with 7W TDP and 40 fps/hz refresh rate
