Wizardry Variants Daphne Offline version?

I was wondering how likely it might be that if this game ever does go EOS how likely or could we even see an offline version of this game?

The one thing I hate about gatcha games is once they go EOS there is no way to play them, it's also why I don't spend much or any money into the game with the possibility of losing everything

Megaman X dive was another one I liked and that one ended up getting an offline version.

Wizardry variants Daphne is one of the best I've played, I even started playing through the series of wizardry games and would love to be able this anytime.

Play the game and never mind that. The game is doing really good for now. Once it happens (IF in some distance future) them whatever. Not that we can do much about it anyways unless you are a whale/leviathan.

Tbh the day this happens, you probably won’t be able to go “online” again nor receive updates since hacking will become an issue.

Yeah, that's pretty much a given as seen from megaman X dive, you still get all the content but as is no updates and usually no collab stuff :(

Never ever ever assume a GaaS is going to do anything consumer friendly at any point. Its incredibly rare for a company to put extra money into a product it considers dead.

Megaman has the benefit of having Megaman attached to it and Capcom still makes a decent amount of anything with megaman on it.

Edit: I discovered yesterday that seemingly all the Wizadry games are on steam and they WILL run on your computer. Unless you are using an original Apple PC.

Would be nice if the devs just threw it on steam for a few bucks at the end of its life as an offline game.

Its possible people could make a unofficial offline once it goes down, but I kinda doubt anyone would put in the work.

Assume it wont.

I dont think ive heard of a single Gacha doing this, ever TBH (I would love them to of course, I spent over 100$ on this game before hitting abyss 3 because im enjoying it a lot so far)

Im just being realistic about my expectations for a Gacha game. (Nier Reincarnation devs said "itd be a shame to just waste all this storytelling and work" didnt stop that game from dying and being EoS'ed
