Can we get polygamous eternal bonds?

Hate? 0_o

I don't think I'll ever understand how people like you think that everyone is like me. Also, assuming you know me at all. Which you don't.

I'm all about "love who you love" and I'm not against poly relationships. But where in North America or basically most of the civil world are you allowed to enter holy matrimony with more than two people? I'm not against it, but the practice of marrying more than one person isn't recognized by basically most developed nations - religious beliefs not withstanding (I'm not religious)

See: https://worldpopulationreview.com/co...ygamy-is-legal

"In every country in North America and South America, polygamy is illegal, and practice is criminalized. In the United States, polygamy is illegal in all 50 states; however, in February 2020, the Utah House and Senate reduced punishment for polygamy to the status of a traffic ticket"

No MMO developer in their right mind will ever recognize the practice.

Good chatting with you.

Just annulled my old eternal bond because I couldn't marry both friends at the same time...

Wouldn't that make it an ephemeral bond?

You just want more free teleports, that is all this topic is about, and unfortunately I suspect a lot of players are scamming the system purely for this reason.

Eternal Bond should just be an RP-focused event, with no real benefit other than what it means to you: an expression of your devotion to another and a celebration of your love. Whatever form that love takes, who you love, how many people you love, it's all good, so go nuts and do what you want. But if you are only doing it for material gain or some mechanical conveniences, then you're in it for the wrong reasons. It's the exact same thing we see with the Mentor system -- the wrong people are acting as fake "Mentors," because all they want is the crown and the prestige and the ego stroking.

That said, there is nothing wrong with wanting to be able to teleport to a friend, but let's keep this cringey "fake marriage" farce out of the equation. They should just let you pick a person on your Friend List to freely teleport to. Or alternatively, as you group up with and play with friends, you gradually generate consumable teleports. Like, you complete one dungeon with them, you can teleport once to them for free. Something like that, anyway. That way, you can maintain some free teleports to the people that matter to you, but you can't just have infinite free teleports to everyone you know all the time.

I'm sorry, but your outrage by the concept of people marrying their friends is hilarious to me. Do you think everyone marries for love IRL, too? Because you'd be surprised how many people do it material reasons like green cards or tax benefits. And that's just in certain parts of the world, where it's still a fairly new concept that someone would marry for love anyway. In other parts of the world, marriages are still commonly arranged between families and feelings have absolutely nothing to do with any part of the process.

"Abusing the system" is equally hilarious because you spare what -a thousand gil maybe? - by teleporting with the ring. And it has a long ass cooldown which means you use it maybe once or twice a day. Literally the only time I use mine is when I'm having trouble finding an NPC and my bonded partner knows where they are.

Cool, good thing nobody is saying you would be forced to eternally bond multiple people if you don't want to.

You know it's not just a Mormon thing, right?

Anyway, Polygamy is illegal in most of the United States and Japan (I looked it up.)
I doubt it's coming to game as a 'supported thing.' Like Murder is illegal too and we do it, but it's also frowned upon by NPCs.
They're not going to make a feature that's IRL illegal.

---

And the fact that it's illegal is stupid. I have a feeling it's a "we don't want to deal with the paperwork of this" thing from the side of the states. Consenting adults should be able to marry whoever they want. If their polygamous marriage has issues, that's on them.

Personally, I don't see a reason not to add the feature at some point, even if it meant only having one ring active at a time or something, so people wouldn't cry about the "unfair advantage" or whatever. It's not a feature I'd ever use , but neither are many other features of the game that many other people enjoy.

Eh one isn't enough ma?
