    Right now I'm limited to my Surface Pro and I noticed something odd. Even after I exit the game, my fan continues to run. Only thing I can think to explain that is that the launcher is using 3d graphics. Is that true, and if so, why?

    Not sure if this is putting an additional load on my graphics card when I'm running the game in full screen, but I don't see any reason that the launcher should need 3d at all.

    Any thoughts?

    I see that even after exiting the launcher my fan is still running. Maybe Windows is the culprit be leaving the 3d stack up after everything is done. Still looking.

    The last time I checked, the launcher is a Unity project, so Windows may be seeing it as resource heavy. It doesn't seem to use any 3D graphics or anything, but it has all of the Unity base functionality (which is not insignificant).
