It really is unacceptable that there's no way to play this almost-entirely-offline single-player game which is entirely downloaded onto my computer without using the internet to log in first. I bought The Sims 4 years ago because I remember playing 3 on trips when I—like many potential customers—had no internet access. I have enjoyed playing offline for those years, but I can't do that anymore because logging in requires internet access (even though my computer is supposed to KEEP me logged in). I can't imagine how tempting it must be now for people with limited internet access to just pirate the game so they can play it locally.
This needs to be fixed.
