I tried running the game with the EGS in offline mode and my NIC disabled in Device Manager, just out of curiosity. I get a message (from the game not the EGS) when I launch it saying "The game failed to connect or authenticate with your Epic account. Third-party overlays may prevent the game from resolving this issue. Please try disabling third-party overlays temporarily and restart the game.".

This isn't on first launch or anything either (got like ~18 hours playtime). So dose the game have some kind of DRM that requires a internet connection to play the game?

I tried disabling Afterburner and RTSS to be sure. Same thing. It shows the Remedy logo and then that pops up and it closes the game.

I fully admit I could be missing something, which is why I wanted to ask you guys.
