Is this case going to make my MBP hotter? Does it have proper ventilation?

Probably. It seems to have for me. There are no vents on the bottom, unlike hard shells I've used in the past. For the past few weeks that I've been using it, the fan has been running full speed - loudly enough that in meetings I just shut the laptop down out of embarrassment. I tried resetting SMC and NVRAM, but nothing helped until I removed the case, and magically the problem went away.
