[quote=Nyanko]I just don't understand why Larian has this absolute closed-mind to the idea of including the ability to just hit the space bar and pause the game during exploration. Yes I can see how it may be an issue for multiplayer, but they can easily have the feature be active only in single-player games. It is such a huge QoL feature even while also being probably the easiest and cheapest feature any game could have!
Kan: Hope the query here is taken in proper context - I'm asking because if it exists, I don't immediately remember seeing it yet mainly - but where has Larian pointedly come out and stated they will have no true pause function in the game? I don't immediately recall it being referenced one way or the other....though I could see where it might be an assumption based on the TB forced mode that that might be supplanting it without knowing.
