Quite unwise to play graphic intensive games using this phone. it gets hot easily and though it has Adreno 405, it's not as smooth as expected for those games with heavy graphics.
That said, you better stick to tablets if you want to play graphic intensive games. Casual games are fine. You may want to choose Z3 Compact or Z3 instead of this phone if you're in to those games.
It's quite unfair and sad to bash the M4 for being crippled. I think it's a true midrange phone where it can handle 80% of an average user's usage. For that price and specs, it's really a crowd pleaser. Though I admit I would have loved 16GB space, 8GB (1.2GB after installing all my apps) of space is sufficient for my personal use
On the contrary, some of the games I mentioned are final fantasy series which are built on hardware of last generations.
The big file sizes are mostly FMV which does not require high performance of the latest flagships.
Similar to M4, my T2 is also having 8GB storage and cannot afford much big sized apps.
But does not have much problems running FF games, and temperature readings rarely hit 39c unless I do the combo of Youtube + charging.
It is good that you do not use much spaces, but for others I would still recommend minimum 16GB.
It is not exactly crippled, but it is bad decision to separate 8GB for single SIM and 16GB for dual SIM version.
Anyhow, it was also initially announced as 16GB storage.
Just wait for the dual SIM to be released with 16GB.
