Or in terms of offline play, can I bypass Denuvo's requirement to go online every 2 weeks? I will be playing this on Steam Deck so I don't want to have to go online. How does it work? Can I set the time back so I don't need to connect?

Nope, you're shit out of luck as far as a crack goes, the only Denuvo cracker lost interest in Denuvo for now and has started selling Stable Diffusion generated pictures. According to Denuvo's patent application, it cannot work without internet connection, because it needs to connect to their server and download a ticket, which contains some "Nominal constants" which were removed from the binary, and the binary cannot run without those bytes. There's something called activations that some people do, they log in and get the denuvo ticket for your system downloaded, but that only works until your system either updates or you change some hardware, anything that would change the HWID that the game binary checks.
