Is the game single player? And at what level. I'm not a multiplayer player.
Is there an offline . I saw that there are also internal things to buy. What are they for?

The game is single player, but you can play with others if you want. (There are guilds, too, but you don't have to join one.) What do you mean by level? This is not an easy game, it has a steep learning curve, if that's what you mean. And, almost all of the in-game purchases are things like stash tabs and cosmetics, all of which are optional, you have access to the full game without paying anything. (Stash tabs are a good investment if you're going to stick with it.) And no, no offline, you can only play through the GGG servers, like Diablo.

i know GGG supports their online guys the most but since this is a free to play i doubt it will ever happen. I suggest checking out Grim Dawn or Titan Quest.

For the sake of auto-sorting satisfaction, at least buy the currency tab

its a single player game however all your loot is based on multiplayer, aka expect lots of trading to get what you want to build as probability is grossly against soloing.

It's single player in the sense that most of the stuff you do in game will be alone, but you have to play online connected to the servers also if you are starting off, getting to the end game and advancing your build without engaging with trade and other people is almost impossible, you'll have to engage with external tools, trade and guides if you want a shot at making any significant progress in your first hundred+ hours.

For the cash shop 95% of it is cosmetics but there are stash related upgrades that you eventually WILL have to get, i'd consider a currency stash tab and at least 1 or 2 premium stash tabs necessary for you to start off and be able to engage with trade, which will boost your progress ten fold.

Solo Self Found (SSF) is a thing: You cannot trade with others if you selected that option (it's basically forced single player), and players successfully clear the end game in that mode. But it requires a lot of knowledge about gearing/crafting,

So the game is single player with optional multiplayer. If you are a serious player, you should sometimes use the multiplayer and buy one or two things from the store.
The game has a campaign, right? How long is it, if any.

like 10 acts before you get to maps - which are like rifts from diablo, and the "main endgame" ("real endgame" are high end maps and super bosses).

Depends, really. An experienced player can get through the campaign in a few hours. If you want to explore the areas, ask some (if not all) NPCs about a few things to get a few grasps about the world and the lore, it can take you dozens of hours.

However, the campaign is not the end of the game's story. The "end game" (or that comes after the main campaign) has stories of its own, and imho much better stories with better voice acting and story telling.

So. the game has PvP tag. Can you explain that aspect?

I have over 2500 hrs playing SSF (Solo Self Found), witch is no parties or trading. So you can play this game totally solo if you want. You just most likely wont be able to make some crazy builds that you will see some youtubers using.
