I actually tried steep a while ago (maybe 6 months?) and refunded it because I couldn’t play offline. I was looking to scratch that SSX Tricky itch and it definitely did not do it for me. Ended up just emulating Tricky, but damn I want a remake or sequel.
Try to pirate the Crew. Or Steep. You can’t, since they rely on a central server.

Ssx 3 via emulator is pretty good. Different though but I like the open world idea.
The Crew server side is being reverse engineered so you can eventually play it in the future.
How many games like this will receive such a server emulator. Piracy won’t stop games from being killed. Policy will.

Test Drive Unlimited 2 in particular is one I use on occasion. https://www.tduworld.com/
The old wii, wii u, ds and 3ds servers have been reverse engineered so I can even do pokemon trades on DS today
Those were whole (partly: very popular) platforms. Not really comparable to Steep, or similar games.
