The installer devs wanted the initial package screen to be kept as simple as possible, so basic X got moved to the screen that follows selection of the 4th option, "Custom". There it's called "X Window System", which provides IceWM from the XDM login manager. That same screen also offers XFCE, LXDE, LXQt, Enlightenment and Mate, in addition to re-offering Gnome and KDE, and offering a wealth of other patterns, such as print server, file server, development, laptop and Xen.
Well, XFCE was not there, I'm sure of that. Without network it is not there. I will try to see if the "minimal X" is there.

Confirmed, no Internet; with Custom the software selection window has a "X window system" pattern. It includes icewm-default.
Also confirmed that XFCE is not there.
I tried with the "openSUSE-Leap-15.0-DVD-x86_64-Build129.1-Media.iso" media on a VM, host only network. I did not complete the install, aborted.
I was looking at the "Software Selection and System Tasks" screen in an in process TW20180218 installation as I wrote. Did you select any other pattern, or go into the details screen to make selections? What exactly do you mean by "not there"? It clearly was there among other DEs on the screen I was looking at.
You are using TW, which is different. I'm using Leap 15.0. Some post in this thread explained that detail, XFCE is present in TW, not in 15 dvd. And with no Internet. And it means that the XFCE pattern is not there to click on it, simple as that. I can email you photos... -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
