Who gives a shit what D3 does? The argument is about POE.

Yes it is, and as part of that argument, people are saying things like "it's an online game, that's why it doesn't pause" etc, which is precisely why examples of POE's contemporaries are relevant. People were discussing D3's pausing as one such example of online games that have pause functions, when you replied saying 'no, it doesn't pause'. They naturally took you to be talking about D3, since that was the subject ("it") at the time. Simple misunderstanding.

I don't know what fucking game you're playing but do this:
Go into a map, engage some mobs and hit ESC.

I'm definitely not talking about D3, because this is POE.
You can't pause POE. Like I said above... who gives a shit what D3 does.
Or any other game does for that matter?

The quote chain that I replied to is directly about D3.
So... you do?

QoL? Dont make me laugh. Go to Diablo 3 forum and ask why it doesnt have pause button as well.
it does PAUSE the game when you play solo and pop up the menu ;)
and it is an exclusive online game
so it can be done.
No, it doesn't pause when you open the menu.

You can't just talk about one thing, then pretend to be talking about something else, when your post history is on record. You realise that, right?

dude... grow a pair... admit when you are wrong
I still have no idea why you are against the idea of pausing the game when you are SOLO in an instance... and unless you are a dev for GGG, saying that the pausing will make the server run worst is just assumption.
and here... I even recorded a video for you to see it definitely can be done properly.

PS: in diablo, "the servers" don't lag, only "instances".

I've never referred to D3, if I replied to a D3 post then it was by mistake.
Why do you people like to cite other games' features? If that game is so great then why the hell are you here?
I've never played D3, and I never will.
The title of this thread is about POE,that's what I'm arguing about.
You don't need pause in this game. And people WILL find a way to exploit it.

As someone who *has* played D3, it's a garbage game with good programming, that's it. Anything that would make PoE more like D3 in literally any way besides "smoothness of gameplay" is an awful idea that should be burned in a tire fire.

Pausing allows you time to consider your situation that you aren't otherwise afforded without a cost (at the least, a portal).
It certainly wouldn't be without impact on the game to simply "add pause" in single player instances. Whether you believe the cost is worth the gain is subjective, but it definitely has a cost.

D3 absolutely pauses if you are not in a multiplayer game. As sure as you might think you are, you're wrong.
I cant be arsed uploading an animated gif or video, but at the least you can see in the screenshot the animation lines of a mid animation pause.
You just admitted it doesnt work in multiplayer. Guess what, PoE is a fucking multiplayer game. It doesnt have singleplayer offline mode.

There might be SOME form of pause for a few games, but its usually as I stated above, so, sadly, in this particular case, you are gravely mistaken.
Oh please. Enjoying moving the goalposts? The claim I was responding to was simply "Online games don't pause". That statement is incorrect if even one online game has pause. If you're unhappy with how broad your statement was, I totally get that, but changing it after the fact doesn't retroactively make my response "gravely mistaken".
Blizzard's RTSs (Warcraft, Starcraft) have pause. Probably lots of other similar games do too, but I'm not much of an online player, so I wouldn't know. Diablo 3 has pause. Valve's FPSs have pause, though as you say, it needs to be enabled on the server. Dota 2, that tiny unpopular game, has pause for anyone.
Pause that needs to be enabled on the server (whether by the admin or by voting), far from being some crazy outlier, is actually a pretty good analogue of what I suggested should be added in POE. If you make it a party option, people who don't want to have to deal with others potentially pausing can leave it disabled, but it should be enabled while playing alone, because in that case I am the one in charge of the 'party' at all times and I cannot be bothering anyone else.
So you are trying to debunk the argument on the basis of a FEW games that arent even in the same category really? Pffft. Ok.
