As TerriblePurpose (with thousands of hours into the game) pointed out way earlier in the thread, it's possible to mine QS in offline play. It's rare, but once you found a source, by tricks like leaving/re-entering the system it's a continuous resource. Coords for systems that have it are covered in FAQs and stuff, and frankly, it motivates me more to explore to find a system like that than playing stoopid generated online missions.
If the QS shop is really unlocked fully without hacks for offline players now, I'd consider the game completely DRM-free again.
If getting the QS is too slow for anybody, they can still simply hack the savegame - otherwise it's just a reward for thorough exploration.

Thanks for the warning, was awaiting for devs to fix/optimize the game before buyng it but since it won't be complete whitout a connection is best to stay away from it.
