  I don't see any explanation about 30-day online requirements at your link. However, you may have provided the wrong link: the FAQ is about a technical alpha build rather than the full release.

    > PLEASE NOTE: Although the Technical Alpha is single-player, an internet connection is still required to download the client and play the single-player in the test. The final game will permit off-line play in single-player mode, but you will be required to connect to the internet periodically to check for updates.

      > but you will be required to connect to the internet periodically to check for updates "But you will be required to return to the reseller with your purchased goods [shoes / book / trolley ...] periodically for a check" The point is not that the clause exists, the point is that the clause is absurd and indefensible.
