Back when FFX was new, I was playing it out in the front room but had to run to do something. I gave the controller to my mom who was in the same room, who looked terrified. "Just press that X button if nothing happens. I'll be right here."

"I don't know what I'm doing!"

I sighed. "They're just talking, Mom. I'll tell you to move if you have to."
Haven't you heard of the pause button?
