Not fully related, but I'd like a management game that doesn't require me to be terminally online. I really enjoyed Fallout Shelter until it became obvious that I was expected to play it twenty-four, seven.

And you think the people behind Genshin Impact are going to make an offline game? :D

I agree that a building/farming game shouldn't be always-online, though.

Yeah. Though I believe I've used the phrase "terminally online" wrongly here. What I meant was that game constantly wanted me to check in, sending notifications every hour if not every thirty minutes. It's clear that Bethesda wanted me to play the game constantly.
