Marriage feedback [inofficial Poll]

[Phe]

And that is entirely not what this thread is about. If you'd like to make a thread about polygamy please feel free to do so, however this thread is solely about same sex marriage. The title says feedback but the entire OP and poll associated with it deal specifically with same sex marriage.

No offense, but it's not on you to decide that.
This is the thread that will be most likely the one considered when it comes to marriage feedback and the thread that was about same sex marriage only was deleted.

the fact that in FFXI it was only possible to marry one character was a problem for me, because i had 3 chars on one account with 2+ jobs on 75, which could not be married to the same person.

polygamist marriage would solve that problem as well.

when a mod reads this and thinks it doesn't belong into a marriage feedback thread, it can be deleted np.

To quote the OP:

So since Yoshi asked about feedback for the same gender marriage why not providing some so we can get an idea if the FFXIV player base wants them or not.

It's a marriage feedback thread, specifically focused on same sex/gender marriage. I didn't decide it, the very first sentence of the thread, and the poll specifically asking only about same sex marriage, did.

At any rate the proposed system already works with two people, all most want is to remove the gender restriction. That is far less work than having to re-create the system to work with marrying multiple people as that creates a whole new set of issues to deal with just as far as the game is concerned.

An alternate fix to your problem would be simply to have marriage be account wide, perhaps as an option if enough wanted choice in the matter.

okay here is my statement that conforms with the OP:

either same sex marriage AND multiple character marriage
or none of it.

And to reiterate the rest of my post that you seem to have missed:

option A: [...] having to re-create the system to work with marrying multiple people creates a whole new set of issues to deal with just as far as the game is concerned.

option B: An alternate fix to your problem would be simply to have marriage be account wide, perhaps as an option if enough wanted choice in the matter.

here's the post you spoke of.
i marked it with the 2 options you mentioned.

maybe i didn't get you quite right, but the result of both options - no matter how much work it would be for the devs - would be the same:
we've got more than 1 character married to the same person.

the only difference i see in those 2 options is that in option B we only have one ceremony and in option A we have more than 1 ceremony.
i was never speaking of marrying more than 1 person in the same ceremony.

so where's the big deal with allowing more than 1 soul partnership or w/e.
the gay minority here wants to be heard, but what about bisexuals as example that don't want to choose between man and woman, but a relationship to both genders?

(oh and everyone please forget about that damn teleport ring. when teleport to everywhere becomes as easy as Yoshi-P recently announced that'd be quite useless anyways.)

In that case, what you probably want is the ability to marry someone regardless of what gender they are, male or female. (Then again, that's what people who want SSM want as well, so whatever.) I think you're suffering from a gross misunderstanding as to what being bisexual means. Being bisexual is not defined by having more than one partner each of different genders, it means you have no preference over either gender as a mate. And if SS bonding is allowed in the game, I'm pretty sure bisexual people will be quite satisfied, as they can pick their soul mate from either gender.

i was talking about a bisexual that wants to have a relationship to both genders. at a time. that means 3 people involved.
it was an example.
i didn't say that bisexuality is defined by such a polygamist partnership.

So, your argument is not for bisexuals, it's for polygamists. Because they're the ones who will not benefit if a relationship such as the one you described is not enabled. Bisexuals should be fine.

you realize you can be bisexual and polygamist at a time, don't you.
when i choose a polygamist lifestyle as a bisexual i don't loose my bisexuality...

but i get what you mean.
yes, my main concern is still for polygamists, the bisexual was just an example.
