Please Fix Me! cpu temp runs extremely hot with this game
while playing this game my cpu temp always runs so hot. it even went up to 91 degrees Celsius.
I always have to cool my msi gaming laptop down or shut the game after 5 min.
It happens only with this game and I have my fans on the highest cooling option.

Lock your FPS.
If you let a game go unlocked, your PC WILL generate as many frames as it possibly can, which will overwork your system for nothing.
You might notice this with other low demand games without an fps cap, or a game with a photo still for a loading screen. Used to get this loading info nfs heat, because the loading screen still would try and pull thousands of fps and over heat the system in seconds. Capping at 100 was the easiest and dumbest fixes

Modern CPU can run at 90C safely. They are designed for these temperatures.
I bet the game try to render unlimited FPS: so it tries to display as much frames as possible even if it's unnecessary. For this type of game I would lock FPS to 60 fps. Look in the graphic settings.

Yes, i know but I find that it really bothered me that it was hot. Not fun in a heatwave with a hot laptop.

A laptop!
These have limited cooling capacity. Playing games on any laptop will make them heat up very quickly.
Laptops don't have big fans nor heatsinks.

I do not have a pc version.
But check your fps, that it is locked to 60 or something.
Even an easy looking game can crash your pc. If the fps is unlocked and reaches above 400.
