Sorry, this isn't "resolved". Linking me to a similar issue is not a solution when that issue has no solution.

My mistake. I thought Jess was referring to the original issue they linked before.

That does describe my issue, but there is no solution there. It's been untouched since mid-last month. Does anyone have a solution to that problem?

No, that does not describe my issue.

My issue is that I cannot play when I'm not connected to the internet. I can play fine while connected to the internet. My issue is that if I am not connected to the internet, the game locks to the demo version. It tells me that if I want to play the full game that I need to log in with my Microsoft account, but I cannot do that since I am offline

I keep getting sent here, but it's not related to my problem. My problem is that I can't play offline because it wants me to sign in, but when I'm away from wifi, obviously I cannot sign in. So I literally cannot play offline unless I am online...which would make it online....which means that Offline does not exist

To reiterate:

"1.Make sure you have internet connection and are connected to Minecraft Services (you do not see a gray info message at the bottom of Minecraft Launcher saying otherwise)"

That does not apply to my issue since I am not able to connect when I am away from home. So how is this a solution when I cannot do it? Before migrating, if I wanted to play, it'd just tell me to play Offline Mode if it couldn't connect. That option is either hidden, not working, or just removed entirely.

I want to play offline when I'm not connected to internet. So telling me to follow the instructions of connecting to the internet does not help my problem of not being able to play offline.

No, it is not. That issue is simply not being able to access the game. Mine is being able to access the game fine online, but not possible OFFLINE.

That "solution" says to log in with your Microsoft account. Great. That doesn't do me any good whatsoever when I'm not able to connect to the internet. When I'm not online, I'd normally play OFFLINE, but the game now doesn't let me. It insists that I log in with my Microsoft account if I want to play the full game, but when I try to, it says I cannot because I am not ONLINE.

THAT is why these are different issues

Has anyone found any solutions to this? I have the same problem. The "solutions" on that page are for other issues, not this one. I cannot even play when not connected to the internet. It only lets me select the demo when offline

This is NOT resolved. Why did you mark it resolved? This isn't even a "duplicate" since that's an entirely different issue

That is not helpful. All the "solutions" there are for another issue. Mine is that offline mode does not exist for me anymore. I cannot play offline. I have migrated and verified my game. I logged into it online and on the mojang website. I still cannot play offline when not connected to wifi. It only lets me play the demo.
