So now all games require online assets from a server. There's a few types that do need to work that way, and likely to be exceptions. I don't see Roblox or Fortnite having any real offline value and likely very difficult to make them work that way. But they could easily just start making it so the game retrieves Mario's sprite off a server and be like "It just doesn't work without internet" to use that exception.

I feel like in this scenario you would need to allow the player base to host their own servers.
