[SOLVED] After 45 minutes to 1 hour playing, some games lag like a slideshow when I move the camera. It only fixes when I close the game and open it again. (pixelfed.social)

EDIT: Seems that adding LD_PRELOAD="" %COMMAND% on steam's launch options fixed my problem. Thanks a lot, everyone :)

I don't know why this happens, I tried playing on windowed, borderless windowed and fullscreen and this bug always happens.

I think heat

Alternatively, since it looks like you're running on battery, does something in your setup change to a "low power" performance mode that throttles your system?

since it looks like you’re running on battery

Sorry for that, I ran fastfetch when I wasn't playing, but I always play using the charger. My laptop decreases it's performance when on battery, but it doesn't wait for low battery to decrease, it's instantaneous.
