I haven't had to ask mom if I could play a game in over 30 years. I don't think I need to start doing so, now. Please return the Play Offline option.

You have to play at least once online, after that you can play offline

Apparently, that is not true. I have only be able to play after entering my ID and password and clicking on PLAY. What else must I do to play online to be given permission to play without your consent offline?

You need to set it to remember your login information for you to be able to play offline. The stored access token, generated by logging into your account, is effectively proof of purchase. If you don't have it set to log you in automatically, it doesn't save the token, and thus won't allow you to play offline.

That would have been useful to know with the upgrade info.
