Allow us to move online characters to offline please

[Wilfrid Wong]

My time is precious. Wasting time in a queue isn't cool. I wished that Last Epoch is an online game that I could play with friends in 2024 ... but it isn't realistic. I am happy to settle and just play this game solo. Could we move our online characters to offline please?

because you can cheat offline, this is and has always been a thing.
Moving from online to offline, im not sure.

You have to have them separate. People would edit or "hack" offline characters then take them online if not.

I have no intention to cheat. I just want to play my game when I click the launch button, and not to wait for half an hr or so to queue.

I deeply regretted creating an online character, tbh.

I mean, maybe. But it 100% does not affect me if someone else wants to.. not actually play the game and just cheat xp/gear/etc. Being able to play the same char in both modes would be super nice, with the various issues that are happening. In fact it would basically solve them, or make them irrelevant, if people could play offline and then switch to online whenever they wanted to do ♥♥♥♥ with friends, and then back offline when solo.

it would affect server economies and would impact their merchant / self found mechanics. Games like this need at least SOME integrity in that respect.

It surely affect majority others. Don't be so selfish.

Hell, if it wouldn't affect him at all - why arent they just playing Solo only anyway? xD

Even if it doesn't affect you, matter of fact is, it'll affect OTHERS which will lead to lots of controversies and blame.

So a lot of arpg games will have offline specific chars and online specific chars. Notably, Diablo 2 does this as well.

You can easily catch up in offline. Earning experience in this game isn't daunting. Sure you probably won't have the same gear, but you'll eventually be able to farm for those again.

it may sound shocking but the game is made for thousands of people. Who may surprisingly, cheat and ruin for everyone else. So thats why you can't do this.

"my time is precious" lol , poor you :(

I created a character online and when it became an issue to play it smoothly I created offline character (from inside the game, not the steam option). It kind of stinks but I just created a different class combo to try.

That online player will still be there when things smooth out completely. But honestly, as a solo player that might be the only online player I create.

I feel pity for anyone who thinks it isn't precious.

Wont happen. Theres too much room to Cheat with that. Just create a new toon on offline, cant be that hard.
