I actively avoid purchasing games that don’t allow client hosting. And I generally try to avoid games that matchmake. I’m tired of shitty matchmaking. I’m tired of corporate hosted lobbies. I’m tired of getting kicked out after each match and having to matchmake with an entirely different group of players.

Give me dedicated client hosted servers. Let us form relationships with other players by playing in the same servers on a regular basis. Gaming is more fun that way.
