There's an app for that!
It's called UniversalPauseButton (no link because on phone, but you can Google it). It basically makes the PAUSE/BREAK button pause any active process. Press it again to unpause.
Will likely cause issues with online games, but if you're playing offline or in single-player, like Witcher 3, Remnant, Baldurs Gate 3, etc it works wonders.

I remember when I was a kid my buddy and I were raving about some game because you couldn't pause it. It was so cool. Emersive. You really had to make good decisions with you inventory, etc etc.
Today I'll just turn the game off if it tries that bullshit lol
The Witcher 3 NextGen has been pretty good in this regard. You can already pause in combat, or in long dialogue trees and even in cutscenes.
