The crazy people that "love to distort and abuse video games" will do exactly as you said. Any way they can. They have plenty of ammo with Primals and the Twelve (religion) and lore like the "Puff Puff Brigade." Paying attention to them above a passing glance takes your eyes off your intended audience.
The lesser of two outrages, yes, by a large amount. The thing is if they don't add it, the only people who will complain are the players. If they do add it, people who don't even play the game will jump on it to attack it, and cause an uproar over things they don't even understand. Primals (evil gods/enemies), made up religions and such are pretty standard in fantasy these days so complaints about them dont pick up much steam in the long run. But same-sex marriage in the modern world is unfortunately much more recent and controversial.


Saying 'a good reason to not allow' was probably not the best choice of words I could have made, so I apologise. I do feel that the more this topic is included in mainstream media and entertainment, the better, as each time it's brought up, it becomes more widespread and accepted little by little. But I do think it's unfair to say 'oh they're just afraid to add it they dont care,' because it's an awkward situation to be put in as a company. I also think the attitude some people have that 'if I cant have it then nobody can' is very immature and puts a bad light on the community that wants it, and then does the same for the community that retaliates against that attitude.

Have they actually said they won't allow it yet? Maybe we should show we're all mature enough to have it rather than attack each other and the company adding this feature
