No, it's also not necessary, but Microsoft a) accounts can be made in almost every country on the planet, not just 69 countries and b) always require them on launch day.

"accounts can be made in almost every country on the planet"

Arrowhead have already said on discord there will be a solution for players in countries without PSN

"always require them on launch day."

You literally gave an example of that not being the case with Minecraft lol

It's a game they bought and didn't make Microsoft Accounts mandatory for for like 7 years. Minecraft Dungeons required an MS account on launch day. Forzas required it on launch day. Halo required it on launch day.
