The existing MSFS is already effectively a live service. Lots of features which make it stand out are not available in offline mode.

I'll admit I haven't played much (or possibly even any?) online MSFS stuff and am generally just a fart around in a Cessna in a random city type of player so I don't even necessarily know what the online features are, other than the Install New Locations minigame wherein you spend hours downloading shit, heh.

Live weather, live traffic, multiplayer traffic, and photogrammetry are all disabled in offline mode.
