Buying games of steam

Do you have to be online to play games you buy off steam? (Morrowind) Google gives me conflicting results. Thanks

No, you can play single player games in offline mode, as far as I'm aware.

Steam does require an Internet connection. Minimally you just need to activate a game on Steam and maybe DL some updates if you have the game on a DIsc. Otherwise you will

have to DL it through Steam since it is a digital provider as well. You can play the game without an Internet connection though in offline mode. However, I believe most games will disable multiplayer in offline mode. Singleplayer usually still functions.
