    Only confirmed gay couple Ive seen in game is from ARR and they said their villages or something shunned them because of their bond. But no idea if its because of them being gay or them being from different races. Might be a regional thing on both accounts. Like in Gyr Abania that one Miqo'te has no issues suggesting a family with one of the midlanders.

    I understand shipping Gaia and Ryne, but they might as well be just good friends. But thats nothing new to the culture, a character in any media sneezes in the direction of another and they are a couple now. So many people just mistake close friendship with being a couple.

    Fandom culture often doesn't even need as much as an interaction, ngl. There're plenty of cases of "they look cute so we ship it" in different communities, and cross-overs were a whole huge thing in 00s-10s. Which is probably fair, since at the end of the day the main purpose of fandom culture is to have fun.

    At least with FF14 writing is often ambiguous enough for it to be possible to interpret interractions differently depending on what the player wants to see there.
