Thousands of hours on high brightness with a static image and it will start to retain elements of the image.
The torture test is important but what ya boi needs to do now is to create a more realistic test. Using static elements for maybe 6 hours at a time every day. That's still "torture" as most users are probably not playing the same game for that long, but still within the realm of possibility.

That's kinda useless. You might as well just wait for the user reports at that point.
These unrealistic torture tests accelerate the potential burn-in, and it's still useful to gauge how long it could really take.
