Default My ETW steam game now no longer play in offline mode

Today when I logged into steam steam was saying that it was updating platform. And after that I can't play ETW in offline mode?


Is steam moving toward SHV DRM?

I can play the game in online mode only and whenever I tried to go into offline mode this error would pop up



Is it just me?

Edit: Oh well it was a false alarm after checking file integrity something was redownloaded and steam now will connect to the internet when we try to play offline before switching to offline mode.

Me too, but seems unlikely with NTW released already.

Actually, they already announced another patch a little before NTW was released.

Really? Are they gonna make ETW into what it should have been as well?

Seriously though, that is good news. Thanks.
