Single player games you can't pause are just plain retarded. I totally understand if you can't play with your inventory, use items, or what not while at risk in the world. That's fine. An option for "I would not like to participate in this game in any way for a period of time" should be a default feature.

I also appreciate games that offer a "quick save" feature that allow you to totally abandon a game and return later with a one-time-use save if they otherwise want to limit saving. Especially long talky RPGs. Sometimes you go into a section of talking and have no idea you're about to spend 30 minutes there.

Everything else is things I don't like about game design, but I'm not screeching about disabilities and trying to make a dev feel bad for not accommodating it like this ho.
