A way to pause the narration?

[Flash_Gordon]

Is there a way to pause the voice overs during cutscenes? Or maybe pause the game entirely? What I find is that i really want to read the descriptive text first, then hear the voice overs, then read more descriptive text, if any, and so on.

 

Like this:

1. (Read): Horror and shock paint themselves across the elven man's face in broad, hasty strokes.

2. (Voice): "This is a misunderstanding. I didn't say...".

3. (Read): He frowns and swallows.

4 (Voice): "...whatever it is you think i said."

 

See what i mean? What i do now is listen to all the voice first, then read the whole thing again.

 

Loving this game so far. I want to take in the story as well as i can.
