[2019] Offline mode?....

For the benefit of other forum dwellers, here’s my response to this;

Hi there Katzeo! So, at release Last Epoch will support both online-only and offline-only characters. The former will be stored server-side and gameplay involving them will be server-authorative. The latter will be played locally. It will never be possible play a character on our servers if it has previously been played locally. While we haven’t made any commitments yet, we’ve discussed the idea of being able to duplicate an online-only character for offline play. If this is implemented, it’s unlikely to be done in time for release.
