If marriage exists in any form, it should include SSM. Benefits or no. I understand what you're saying, but anything in game that excludes any group of people from it is wrong.

If it's anything like in XI, its just really a thing for roleplayers or people who meet on the game and end up together. It didn't have any beneficial values to it other than I think a certificate.
The only thing that sucked there was that you had to have a sponsor/coordinator to fill out an application on your behalf, and wait months for it to happen (if you got selected for the date you chose at all)
Hmm...
Same-gender marriage... That's an oxymoron right there! w
I can see this being convenient if a married couple playing the game as the same in-game gender had wanted something to show their union, but then again, said married couple as a father and mother might not so much fancy the concept of exposing their children to a setting where something so morally debased is glorified.
