Same-Sex Marriages

[Alkalinehoe]

This thread should not have continued beyond these idiotic statements.Try to have a little tact next time.

It's a joke.


Wooooosh.

I want to marry my pet.

Squre-Enix ninja-added gay marriage in over a year ago with their automated marriage system. They couldn't just come out and say they added it due to political and social pressure, so they stuck it in and just let people figure it out for themselves. Here is a basic rundown on how to marry someone of the same sex:

Step 1: Get a friend of the opposite gender (your best man or maid of honor or witness or whatever) to buy two rings.
Step 2: Use an HQ earth crystal to sign the rings.
Step 3: Exchange the rings (whether through a ceremony or juat right there at the NPC who acts as a justice of the peace.)
Step 4: Buy your friend a ring.
Step 5: Talk to the NPC one at a time while partied with your friend to get your marriage certificates. Marriage certificates aren't actually signed. They're just furnishings. congratulations! You're married.

As for there being no gay NPCs in FFXI, I direct you to WotG's storyline and numerous ToAU quests; most notably Three Men in the (and the?) Closet. There is a gay Tarutaru in the Windurst Woods Clothcraft guild, as well as the Norg NPC who accepts the avatar items for your summoner ring. Also, the male mithra in the Windurst Waters (S) storyline is openly bisexual.

And this is exactly what I was talking about earlier, but was ignored when you decided to just apply the 'homophobe' label to me. Hypocritical much?

Additionally, thanks for the info about the certificates being unsigned. With that information, all it would take would be a little manipulation of the system with a couple of opposite-gender Jeuno mules or friends to have EVERYTHING a hetero 'marriage' in-game would have.

Awh man you shouldn't have told everyone... Now all the trolls have nothing else to feed themselves with :[[[ Poor trollerz, lmao, And I thought I was the only one who knew about this xDDDD

I just have to add that I chuckled when I saw one of the first posts say people would be in an uproar if you could get married to the same sex in a game. This is old. Fable, one of the most popular RPG franchises right now, has had gay marriage and gay sexual partners for a long time. Nobody complained. You don't see gay gamers playing a game where there is a heterosexual marriage. It'd be nice to see the day where more straight gamers felt the same about a gay marriage in the future. We'll get there... in time.

The amount of homophobia in this thread is staggering.

I don't care if they add same-sex marriage into the game. It won't affect my game play.
