What other games require an arbitrary extra account just to play? I know Ubisoft does it. How about EA or Epic?

Epic did it to fallguys a ~year after the game came out

Most of the F2P games.

SquEnix does for a lot of their newer games. WB requires one for Multiversus, which that one requires your fucking address for some damn reason?!

And yeah, most F2P and MMOs require one. I don't even remember mine for SWTOR.
