Deep Rock Galactic runs great and is a lot of fun. It is a bit of a battery hog though, so best plugged in or in short bursts.

Boltgun runs fantastic and is a great boomer shooter. The cutscenes don’t work without a workaround, but there’s 4 total and none of them are important anyway.

Doom Eternal runs beautifully, and is super action-packed and fun. Surprisingly good on the battery too for such nice graphics.

I found DRG to be fine on battery until you hit like 20%, then things get wild

Lol nothing like 3% battery warning as you scramble towards the drop pod to really put the fear of Karl in you!

For real though a 25 minute mission easily eats 40%+ of the battery, no idea why it’s so energy intensive. Mind you I’ve done zero tinkering, just playing it out of the box, I’m sure you could juice some more life out of it if you tried

Haha, I’ve lost all relevant when racing to the drop pod on battery, that makes things pretty challenging.
