Sekiro has pause and it didn't make it any less intense. No pausing exists in Souls only for multiplayer purposes. Even Souls games could easily implement pause if you're in offline mode. This no pausing thing is simply poor design. Also, Nightreign could use a quit/suspend mode for those of us with unavoidable life obligations (kids, health, etc). Dedicating 45 to an hour to a game without interruption isn't always an option.
