High idle temp?

[Calcius]

So, I've got an MSI Apache Pro-004 GE62 Laptop PC with an Intel Core i7-6700HQ Processor, 16GB Memory, 1TB Hard Drive, and so far it has run everything I've given it like a dream. However, this is the first computer I've ever owned personally, so I've been checking the temperature a lot.
It idles at 47-50 degrees Celsius, which I figured was fine but others have recommended 45 or so Celsius as a good idle temperature, and that as a rule of thumb not to rise above 60 degrees Celsius.
When I play some of the more intensive games I have, The forest, for example, it generally shoots up to about 70 degrees C. I'm not covering any of the side vents or anything, so is this out of the ordinary for a laptop like this? I'm sure it is within the processor's maximum safety range, but jacking up the heat still isn't the best for it. I've had the laptop for a few days, if that means anything.
Am I doing something wrong?
Edit: I suppose it should be noted that, as this is only the first computer of my own, I am not as well endowed with knowledge here as I could be. Perhaps the temperatures are perfectly fine and I'm merely making a mountain out of a molehill.

1.) For how long do you have that laptop?
2.) Did you ever clean it from inside?
3.) Is your intake vent under your laptop? (make sure it's not sitting on a blanket or other cloth/wool products)

It's normal for a laptop to heat more than PC since they are more compact, especially when you're playing demanding games...

2 vents are on the bottom, yes. I've had it only a few days. No, haven't cleaned it yet

So it's brand new? You've been using it for few days only thus far ?

Yup

it seems like the temperature is perfectly normal for that cpu. Video: https/www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4oUcIpbR7s

Just make sure your laptop and "breathe" and that you clean it at least once a year (inside parts especially exhaust/intake).. change thermal paste once the temps start going higher than usual (like 100+)

That looks normal for me. The apache range is quite slim so expect high temps.
