You don't require internet unless you miss the essential prerequisites. I saved the drivers 40 + 3 days before July, didn’t have internet for three months, and all my games worked perfectly on the first setup without it! Cheers! P.S. Test disabling Wi-Fi to see if it functions without internet.
It varies by game type. For small indie titles, the case is often unnecessary. Major games usually require drivers; without them, they may download them via the internet.
Normally, a basic configuration needs online access for most functions...
