I understand what you're trying to say, because open world games are generally more demanding, so they'll require more power. However you have to remember that Zelda is 900p 30fps, so there will be games that will not require as much power to hit that target. But less demanding games allow them to attain a higher resolution and framerate, say 1080p 60fps. And in doing so that less demanding game will end up using just as much power and drain the battery just as much. if Zelda was 1080p 60fps you may have a point, though even then developers would still mostly use all the power they have available... They'd optimize till it ran fine, they won't optimize it just to reduce cpu/gpu usage below 90%+ because they have no incentive to do so. |
I don't really understand your point here, on portable mode all Switch games runs at 720p max, sure some will be 60fps and that would drain more battery than if they were 30fps games, but no way a less demanding game will drain the same the same battery as Zelda for being 1080p 60fps because is simply impossible.
