Marriage feedback [inofficial Poll]

[odintius]

Odintius, could you please make clear arguments and sentences instead of resorting to personal attacks and name calling ?

It will only hurt your position more otherwise.

You call that an attack lmfao if you believe that those quotes can't mean something different than just a sexual suggestion then people have issues

[odintius]

this thread is still alive? I thought the newest fad is to talk about F2P?

Nope people want to keep it alive guess i help in that fell for the troll poster from last night i guess im done now with useless thread now cheer.

If your a total pervert who only think of things in just sexual way then sure in your head it would deem that. If your a person who don't think in terms of everything as being sexual you could interpret those comments a different way as comic relief not in let butt ugly lmfao it not like they added dialogue with the mind set of just sex.

I've seen many cases of being in denial.

Never seen one as bad as this.

You know this is Square Enix we're talking about, right? Have you read any of the NPC dialogue in the game? Have you played their previous games? Did you know that tentacle monsters in the earlier games would only target female characters?

Hahaha good ol ultros......

But yea, it must be denial or some form of extreme mental purity. The game has plenty of sexually suggestive conversations with NPCs, no matter what gender you are when you talk to them. If you were to have chosen a male path partner as a male, surely he would had the same sexually suggestive comments with you as my female path parther did with my female character.

To try to pretend that it wasn't there.......... denial for sure, or TL;DR.

I'm pretty sure ARR is going to be FULL of the same suggestive conversations here and there, unless the new team is full of pure-minded homophomes...

NOPE because they have a Knee-high socks lover/fetish guy with them.

Actually only the miqo'te path companion is sexually suggestive. Each race and gender has their own personalities and miqo'te, being the fanservice characters, are given the sexual personality lol.

But yes there are a lot of suggestive comments involving male NPCs across the game too.

I mean it outright says when you view the game "SUGGESTIVE CONTENT".

The game tells you before you even experience it "hey there is sexual shit in this".

Hmmm well maybe if we were able to have male miqo'te .....

i think the best thing to do is to burn all threads and posts about politics, sexual orientation and religion to ashes.

please make a forum rule to ban users and delete all posts that might invoke heated politics, sexual orientation and religions discussions.

all these sort of thread did nothing but brings about detriment effects for the community and the company.

Dunno how I didn't see this earlier. I guess my brain is developing an immunity to ignorance and makes me unable to see it.

"GRRRRR PEOPLE HAVE OPINIONS, BURN THEM AT THE STAKES!"

Do you work for the government of one of those oppressed countries that kick people down when they have opinions on things? Those governments aren't doing so well lately.

Any discussion can be negative. People rage over each other about loot. Wait until housing comes out and people complain that it's too expensive and people continue bitching at each other and insulting each other over that.

Doing searches for "A Realm Reborn" on google, several news articles come up regarding the game. Not so much the game itself, but the fact that "same sex marriage is a maybe". What are people saying about that? Some people are getting annoyed. Edit: That Square Enix didn't decide to implement it straight away.

When SWTOR originally objected to the idea of same-sex marriage there was a firestorm. Once word got out about that the developers had to immediately change their stance. They had absolutely no choice in the matter.

Actually the female Hyur companion I had used the same script.

The beauty of the phrase "suggestive themes" is that it's fairly vague and can cover a lot of things. So instead of having a mile long list of all the things one might find offensive, it's all combined under "suggestive".

To add to my last post before someone comes in and takes what I said completely wrong, I want to add some more perspective to the situation.

There are not many people in the XIV community compared to other communities.

There are far fewer people involved in the XIV forums.

The snapshot of the forums' opinions with this thread show an overwhelming majority in favour of same-sex marriage. This game's direct competition supports and includes same sex marriage.

When game news sites start getting a hold of this sort of information and things like "Square Enix decided not to include same-sex marriage into A Realm Reborn", that shitstorm is going to escalate just like it did for other companies. Square Enix does not need a shitstorm. I completely agree that they need to focus on making this a good game and this is a silly thing to hurt the game BUT THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS IT WILL. It was a poor choice for Yoshida to give the answer he did regarding that question and PR should of pressed about it a bit more, but what can you do now that it's done.

I'm sure ARR will be great and I have faith in it but in this day and age, regardless of how much people want to ignore it, politics are just gonna get involved in games like these. They're not just games. They're social communities, and so long as society as a whole is generally flowing down one direction, the games must generally conform to those flows. Sad but true.

[Reika]

And once again, he should have just added in marriage with SSM and just said 'Players can marry each other now' and been done with it. He wouldn't even need 'feedback', it would just be there. I don't even think they plan to have it 'GM style', and I hope not because it will be all so much more easier for them to just 'put it in' that way.






....... btw, there was some 'suggestion' thar.
