+1 for the pause button. Logging out in the middle of a fight because of a phone call, someone at the door, whatever else, is a pain. By the time it takes you to hit ESC, move your cursor to the logout button and press it, your character might already be dead to a goblin spear in the face for instance. Also pretty sure if you load back in when tons of enemies are around, you'll be obliterated before you can do anything.

Even if you're not in a fight, You're still wasting time logging back in, which can quickly become a pain in the *** for people who need to pause frequently because of kids or whatever. I understand you can't pause in multiplayer, but single player should be an easy enough fix. This is basic Quality of Life stuff. Like being able to Repair All with a single click, hold the E key down for half a second to fill a Klint up to max wood instead of spamming the key 25 times or holding it down to take FOREVER to fill the thing up 1 wood per second, setting a quantity of carrot soup to craft so you don't need to sit there crafting them one by one when you've got a hundred of them to craft. Lots of little improvements that don't affect the "hardcore" nature of this game. Freeing the player of unnecessary clicks and load times is a no brainer positive for all.

And don't you dare pretend this stuff is "catering to casuals wha wha wha". This is just smart game design. You'd love to have those improvements as well.
