MODERATORS
That's really good to know, I'm coming from console/mobile games so stuff like that never really comes up.
Yeah, it's an unfortunate side effect of most PCs always having Internet access. Hopefully it won't give you any trouble, but it sucks to run into a game that won't run offline or that is insisting on a license check when you know you won't have Internet anytime soon.
I run a heavily modded Skyrim on my deck and it plays fine offline, but the launcher won't work offline for some reason. So, I can play it as much as I want, so long as I don't completely exit the game. Its probably a solvable problem, but I'm rarely without a connection or at least the ability to use my phone as a hotspot just to run the launcher.
