Imagine you would save all YouTube videos on your hard drive. You don't have enough space for that (and time to download anyway). So the next best thing is to just stream those videos and parts you actually watch.
And this is kind of how this game works; it will only deliver those parts and download in the background (which is called streaming) what you currently visit and need. Because you don't have enough space on your drive.

FS 2020 had an offline mode. You get much lower quality terrain and no live data like weather. I'm assuming it's the same with FS 2024.
I don't know if it has offline only mode.
