Refresh time is 20sec on boss encounters, the rest is on demand. The game isn't sending you info on your inventory and deck every second if you are not on that screen, only when you actively use it.

So its on demand by active usage or 20 sec on boss screens. If the game is spamming requests for actions in the background without any logic, couse its gonna refresh that screen info when you get to it anyway. Anything else is pure BS and shoddy programing.

I played other games with constant connection, and they heated less than this, and they were 3D games that by all logic have to consume more cpu and power than static 2d screen.

Why would a game use both cores at 1.5ghz (in my case) if the static image is sitting on screen and it refreshes every 20 sec? Why not throttle the cpu usage? This game uses more cpu than benchmarks that task the phone to hell and beyond.

There is only one explanation for this, and its crappy programing.
