I haven’t been following along the whole time but they wouldn’t even mention the issues forcing always online brought at launch. People quit playing so the servers caught up, but they still won’t add offline. Apparently they have absolutely no interest in the steam deck demographic.
Payday 3 worked fine for me before the full release overloaded the always online servers for weeks. It’s a funner game than payday 2 but always online is ridiculous. I don’t want developers to just get away with that in the future.
