Xbox One configuration

Dear Microsoft,

I'm writing this post to say that the Xbox One should not require an internet connection in the the first time we were setting up the console.

Remember that not everyone has an internet connection. These people won't be able to enjoy the console because of that.

Don't you think of those who don't have an internet connection?

Consoles were made to always work offline. The internet connection should always be optional.

I hope the next Xbox that you launch doesn't require an internet connection in no time.

That's all I have to say.

I bought and set up a Yamaha rx-v377 yesterday and couldn't figure this one out either until i came to this site which gives instructions on how to configure the xbox.

It worked for me let me know how you get on.

Erm...................................no, just no.

I'll give you some reasons why.

1: You buy a game and you have no internet, you start playing but for some reason the game wont allow you to get past the first level. You ask your mate if he is having similar problems and it turns out the developer released an update that fixed this
problem, but you need the internet to get it.

2: The Next Xbox is released (lets call it Xbox 2) and there is a problem that the Blu Ray drive wont play films, turns out that you need an update for that feature.

In this day and age if you don't have the internet then you really don't want to be buying a console, all of them require the internet to a greater or lesser degree, even the Nintendo Switch required a day one update to allow it to work.
