Why characters saved only on servers and Online and Offline characters are separate characters?

Hello, i dont understand why characters in Diablo 2 saved only on servers and offline and online - separate modes??

Why character save not in consoles/pc first and then if user need synchronize character with server - just click on button “Synchronize with server”. Thats it.
And why online and offline character not the same???

So many problems from the air…

You solve mamy problem - if your servers are blow up - it doesnt matter for user, all characters saved on their platforms. But if servers blow up right now (just my imagination) - what happen with our characters??

Your servers go down ok, but if character are the same for offline and online mode - we can play offline and continue our progression. Then when your servers work - we click the button SYNC WIT SERVERS! Who wanna play offline character if this character cant play online??? This is stupidly thing ever made.

Well, something like that…

Thank you!

Offline characters are saved on your computer or device. That means some people cheat and modify the files to make items, better character stats, etc.

Online chars are saved on the game server and can’t be changed.

To prevent cheating online and offline are totally separate.

Well, how it works in Diablo 3??? Titan Quest???

I can play same character online and offline. And pretty sure other online games.

I agreed only with fact - its because of crosssave, but - create a button “sync with server”

Diablo 3 does not have offline characters at all. Only online.

Ok, (play long time ago, i play only with my wife in coop), sorry

Like what? D3 (for PC) only has online play. Your characters are not saved on your PC. Console D3 is different. Those characters are saved locally, and as a result there are a lot of hacked characters and items. Not something you want.

Other games like D2R and Wolcen allow single player offline, where characters are saved locally and you can hack them to your heart’s content, but they will never be allowed online.
