To everyone telling me "stop crying" and "git gud" because I think Elden Ring should have a pause button, here's me beating Malenia at Rune Level 1 with no summons or magic

and here's me beating ALL of Elden Ring at rune level 1. Asking for accessibility options doesn't = a lack of gitting gud

shouldn't even need a reason for why a pause button is a nice feature to have in a game. but here we are... debating a 40-year-old industry standard.

If you're playing offline a pause button seems like a no brainer. Doesn't seem like something worth arguing about.

now try beating her rune level 1 no summons or magic or weapons. you can only talk your way through it and you need to convince her to give up.

Let me introduce you to a friend of mine

It should be pointed out that you can pause the game in Sekiro so I dont see a reason that it cant be in Elden Ring as well

I don't like this idea that souls players are now being weirdly separated into categories. If you used a cheese strategy -- You still Won. If you used a broken build -- You still Won. If you used Summons -- You still Won. I don't see how using the system the devs put into the game somehow makes you less of a gamer.

This proves that it doesn't need a pause button, right? Lol

It proves that people asking for accessibility options in FromSoft games aren't just bad at the games.

Having a no pause function is part of the souls experience. I can support the argument for a pause button, but I think "disability" was the wrong word to use.
