Turn based games do not have that.

i often forget to do something important and quickly lose the game

I liked playing the first Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War against the AI by pausing the game, issuing orders, running it for a while, pausing again, issuing orders... The replays would last a third of the game time and they were actually quite enjoyable to watch. A lot was happening at once since I could actually match AI's speed that way.

It also made it harder to skip some important step, or forget about a unit doing nothing at the edge of the action, etc.
