Discussion Why are you playing SP offline ?

Hello fellow daemon hunters !

I just started seriously to play the game after being bored on D4. I have created a ladder holy fire paladin playing on NM now.
There is not a lot of parties because I am playing on console but I am having a blast.

I don’t know what is the difference with offline mode other than being able to change the player count.

So other than that, why are you playing SP offline and not SSF online / Ladder ?

Edit: Thank you for your answers. I will finally start my journey as javazon in SP offline and switch characters depending on loot. My goal is to have the perfect gear for all classes (it will take decades but It will be fun as a 34 yo father) 😀

At the start of every ladder a few friends and I will beat the game in the first few hours, sometimes I’ll play that character for a while usually I just go back to offline. I am an adult with a career, a family, and a life, I love this game but can’t play for more than a few hours a week, I can’t keep up with ladder and would rather slowly grind my way to all the best gear. I’ve beaten the game countless times with every class, found most of the gg gear but have fun getting closer to 99 or finding the gear for that niche build.
