Gaming and Battery Health

[BigHulkDiesel]

We all know the battery on the Lumia 1520 is fantastic, but I have a battery health question. A couple weeks ago I downloaded and got addicted to Minecraft PE on the 1520. The screen size makes this an excellent game to play. However, this drains the battery very very fast! I'm fine with that as long as it doesn't effect the battery health. For example, I am getting enough battery to go through a full day and have 40-50% left when I go to bed. Am I going to start seeing this slowly lower should I keep putting a strain on the battery? Playing Minecraft will take the battery from 100% to 30% in an hour or so.

Any experiences or thoughts?

Minecraft will eat battery in the short term obviously.

Batteries wear out regardless, that's for sure. My 920 doesn't last as long as it used to when it was new obviously.

It will definitely put more wear on the battery over time, but personally, I wouldn't care because:
A. it can be replaced. Not a 30-second swap job like some others, but it can be done. heck, you might have upgraded before it becomes a major issue.
B. might as well get some enjoyment out of the phone anyway
C. its not going to dramatically kill the battery over a short period of time

this is just my take anyway
