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.

I'm basing that on how things happened with both D:OS games. For both those games, when requests were made to include pausing during exploration, something quite a number of people asked for, Larian's response was to be adamantly opposed to it. But this has not yet come up for BG3, hence why I included it in my list of questions.
