Pause button during Cutscenes, please :)

Devs, could it be possible to add a pause button during cinematic/cutscenes? I’m pretty sure people with kids would love this option. I missed half the story because of diapers :stuck_out_tongue:

The button is needed too for things like sitting on a bed where you cant press ESC to pause the game
Because if you press ESC Henry will rise up from sitting.

Lol… I would like this too! When i first got the game, my young daughter woke up during the initial cutscenes (twice) and I had to go to her, so I had to completely restart the game (twice lol) to see the whole of the first cutscene.

Yes! Please! Also need to add “because cutscenes are one time spouse wishes to talk about things” to the list of reasons why a pause button is needed for cutscenes!

Yes, we 100% NEED this. I’ve missed too many cut scenes because one of my kids was doing something that required me to spring into action.

Yes, this would help a lot. I have found myself in many cut scenes trying to press a nonexistent pause button.

Alt-tabbing worked in some cutscenes, only in those that are 100% videos and not partial cutscenes (like those where you make choices).

To add to this, I think it would be nice to add the ability to pause any time at all. I have noticed that if you are in the middle of animations such as getting on/off your horse or getting up/down from bed, then you have to wait until the animation has finished to be able to pause. It’s not major but it’s something I ran into earlier this evening when trying to pause the game to help my daughter with her homework.

Thoughts?

Yes, please!! I have a cat and 2 dogs (one of which is still a puppy). They have the annoy…amazing ability to identify the least opportune moment to go get into trouble (like conversations or cutscenes) and make sure to do something that requires immediate jumping up and running after them going “Ack, no, put that down!” or “Crap, where are the paper towels?!” or "&#@€&#!"
So since you also can’t work around it by saving every few seconds in order to try not to have to go back too far if you miss a scene, it would be absolutely heavenly/awesome/super duper to have a Pause button!
(hopefully I haven’t just missed the patch notes that have already added it or something lol)
