Not posting in official help since I'm actually running a different distro (Slackware -current, not an Ubuntu or Mint,) but has anyone experienced excessive heat output? My system is normally running around 60C but after opening Grim Fandango it'll jump up into the 80's, 90's, and I even had a heat-related reboot earlier. It doesn't seem to be using too much CPU, and I've tried turning the graphics down as low as possible, but it just seems like something's heating my system up like crazy. Intel graphics on a Thinkpad T430, 4.4.1 kernel.
EDIT:
I'm guessing it's something with the shaders, even if you turn advanced shadows off. It seems to "only" hover around 90C if you keep it on the classic renderer with the resolution set to minimum. Is the game really this badly optimized a year after release?
