Name sixty-nine (69) games where this happens.

Pretty obvious that you're playing lewd shit, you sick fuck
It's called a panic button, and it has a legitimate function in japan where you often don't have a lot of privacy in your home unless you happen to be living alone
educate yourself, you fat waste of space

Cave story fucked me on this
normally you press esc to pause and then again to unpause, it usually isn't an entirely different fucking button.

You know what really grinds my gears? There's a pause/break button on everyone's keyboard and almost no game apart from Deus Ex uses it as an actual pause key despite it being a legacy key and no modern programs using it for anything else.

Why?
>>
>>344593372
Call of Duty uses it, surprisingly.
>>
>>344593372
who the fuck wants to move their hand all the way there
it's much easier to use esc

yea, I don't feel like trying to beat that today, maybe tomorrow.

The modern games or the original ones before 4?

>>344594268

It's in the same row as the Escape key and equidistant from your right hand as it is to your left hand and the Escape key.
>>
>>344594680
No. Left hand you just move a finger up, right hand you have to let go of mouse and move it, unless you don't have a numpad or use arrow keys to look around I guess.

esc is right next to wasd
pause isnt close to either hand
>>
>>344595196
distance from mouse to pause isn't even completely accurate. I play vidya with the mouse way farther away than that visual represents, which only further proves the point
>>
>>344595167
>>344595196

Sorry, I was thinking of standard typing positioning, not relative to WASD + Mouse.
>>
>>344593372
laptop keyboards tend to drop it
but it really should work as pause in more shit since that's its actual fucking function
