Yeah, I think the real thing worthy of review bombing is no local or direct IP substitute, but that's also unfortunately most multiplayer games these days. No matter what, if you want cross play, someone has to pay for it, and Epic is willing to foot the bill. Plus, Valve's multiplayer servers, if I had to bet, have less uptime, so Epic might be an improvement.

I definitely agree on the lack of local / direct connection options.
