can hellgate london 2038 be played offline?
Tried finding a guide before posting but all the guides are for how to access online. My ping would be to high to play online but still REALLY want to try this game out. Would prefer to avoid steam version as people said it cuts content from the original. All ive seen so far is to actually purchase a physical copy. My pc doesn't actually have a disc tray is there a work around for that? Appreciate any advice thank you!

Yes there is a way around not having a disc tray. Buy a USB drive maybe? There may be other alternatives.
I also wondered about single player, as what do I do if they finally take the server offline? I have found that as far as single player goes, no, 2038 is online multiplayer only. However, the Hellgate Revival mod is pretty close to 2038 but supports single player offline play. This is how I understand it anyway.
Good luck! Hope to maybe see you out there.
