With Valve and Steam? You would be paying for online multiplayer.

Atleast there would be a offline option with that. If online multiplayer was paid.

Steam itself has an offline mode, even if they sell online-only games. I use it pretty often.

You can pay for online multiplayer and not have an offline option on consoles. There's no reason to believe that paying for it would make more games playable offline.
