So I was wondering if i could play and charge with this laptop without worry, that's about it. I tried it once and nothing happened except the fans getting louder.

Yes, you can leave the computer plugged into the charger and use it.

 

The fans are likely louder when the power is connected because the computer has the needed power to run the fans at capacity.  When you are running on battery, depending on your power settings, components (including fans) may run at reduced power levels.

 

For the most part, if you don't need to disconnect the power (charger), just leave the computer on AC power.
