Game keeps shutting off my Laptop's AC power and going to battery. I play on a laptop connected to a large TV, I have an RTX 3060.

So I found a solution to play in a 2k window and then didn't happen for a whole day. But then that didn't work anymore so I downgraded to a 1080p window and that worked for a day.
Now at about 60 hours into the game (Corel after Gold saucer) The game keeps shutting off my AC power and going to battery, which makes it unplayable after only a few minutes, going down to 900p and putting all graphic settings to minimum, doesn't make a difference. So it looks like I just have to quit playing the game now.

I tried running FF7 Remake on maximum settings, then CyberPunk 2077 on high settings and neither of these games have this problem. It seems unique to FFVII Rebirth, where it just shuts the power down when it gets hot instead of just lower the frame rate or something. When my battery isn't in the Laptop, this means it will just switch off the whole computer. I read online that this game apparently shut down the whole PS5 regularly when it was played there. This seems to be a unique problem to this game.

I may not have the most beastly machine, but it was running smoothly at default high settings, until this weird power issue.

Blame your ♥♥♥♥♥♥ PSU, not the game.

Well like I said it's the only game that does this. If it's my PSU then Cyberpunk 2077 should have been switching the AC power off too.
