‘Baldur’s Gate 3’ can be a fantastic experience and a bad game at the same time.

I understand that this game isn't for everyone, especially people who want a pause button in a turn-based game.

Most of the time, it's not even turn based. You run around in real time, or did you forget that?

I've missed dialoge since I can not pause a conversation in a single player game ffs.

You can hit the big round turn-based button in bottom right of your HUD to activate turn mode at any time, even outside combat. This effectively pauses the game. The game even makes a sound effect of a clock slowing down and stopping.

I'm aware, but no, it's not a pause since it can not be used to pause the game, for example, when in dialogue.
