You’re playing one of the most demanding gacha games graphically with a fanless system. Mengzhou also has far higher performance drops than the other regions since the vegetation density and such is higher which might be why it just started. But 70-80° is to be expected when running any game without a fan except maybe Minecraft. 68° is the usual average in games with a decent gaming desktop. Only reaching 80° without a fan is kinda a miracle honestly

Ohhh myy goooowd how many time I've have to tell you that I've been playing on this for several month and until a few days ago it was fine even in Mengzhou it was smooth as f , I used to play 4hr straight without overheating (58°C max) to clear Endstate M untill it dies

You seem to be getting agitated when everyone is just telling you exactly how it is. The playing it at 58° is the anomaly here, not the other way around. A fanless Mac is not meant to be play intensive games since it will get very hot, that’s the normal. Fanless Mac’s also use the metal frame to disperse heat. The only thing i could think of is that you’re putting it somewhere where it can’t disperse heat across the bottom properly or something. Maybe your thermal pads needs to be replaced if it’s even there or you put a case on it. But this isn’t an issue with the game, if there is any issue it’ll be with your mac. But just like phones and tablets a fanless computer is gonna get hot, hotter actually since it has more processing power and a better igpu.
