The OS requires an online login?
I don't know if the OS exactly requires an online login, but it basically boots into the Steam client, and that won't do you much good without a Steam account.
Yeah this is incorrect the OS doesn't require a steam login to work. You can bypass the steam login at boot if you want to and only need it to play steam games.
Require? I'm pretty sure you can get to desktop without, but how about big picture and gamescope? I've never seen steam ui without logging in.
You click "offline mode" if thats what you want.
