Marriage Roulette

This would make vote kick abuse even worse since it only takes 1 person actually voting yes in a kick for it to go through, not counting the initiator of course. So no thanks.

Remove the votekick option, should've never been implemented. People need to get along with everyone, just like in this salty forum. (not that your comments were salty, mind you )

While it's a little annoying when me and my sister are leveling and we can't do certain roulettes together...I also tend to play solo quite a bit and given only allowing some roulettes is for queue management, in the long run I think it's still a good idea.

For every every person that has a few buddies lined up to queue with, I bet there are probabaly 10 times more solo players.

If you're leveling your 1st class, then just queue solo. If you have end game level characters...then currently you can do 50, 60, experts, normal alex and void arc together.

Thanks for the reply!

I'm not playing only for leveling, leveling by itself comes automatically. We are playing for the fun of it, and to have a bit more XP of course and GIL, which is needed for the absurd Market Board ruled by humans..

So yeah, So many options for leveling, but do get into Dungeons (where we have fun) would be nice for everyone.

As someone else said, unlock it up to the max party -1, then we might see a new hype from bored players.

I was expecting this topic to be about something different from the title, and I'm now confused and slightly disappointed. There's got to be a gap in the market for random wedding matchmaking roulettes. Who needs to meet someone and get to know them first?

Back on topic, it would be fun but I honestly think married couples get enough perks. I usually play with my real life partner and we just don't bother with those roulettes. Having more duo options would be nice but why limit it to couples?

Lol tell me beyond Soloers (which the games leans toward) Who's limited? Couples are underrated here, not the opposite lol

And besides teleporting quickly once per 30 mins outside instances, tell me the perks of being married in this game?

Why do they have to be married? Why can't pairs of friends join too? It's such a weird, arbitrary restriction to suggest. Admittedly such restrictions seem popular with the team so it might give it a better chance ;p

To be honest I think they balanced the marriage stuff pretty well in terms of making it satisfying without making everyone who isn't married feel as though they're missing out on something essential. The ring is great, the sentimental items and clothes are great, the mount is hilarious and we had a lot of fun getting together with our friends when my wife and I married in game.

In any case, I feel being part of a couple is its own reward which doesn't need incentivising further. Loosening the roulette restrictions is fine as per your other suggestion, but there's no need to leave anyone out.

(Anecdotally on my server most of the players in DF are incredible and even when I work hard I often come away feeling as though I was carried. Whereas playing with my real partner (and our friends) was a hilarious bloodbath of overconfidence and quick learning right from the beginning. There are cultural differences in play here, obviously, but I'm pretty sure I've learnt more from playing with someone who isn't afraid to scream "What on earth are you doing?!" mid-fight than a bunch of highly capable strangers. No need for people to judge others for the way they choose to become skilled at their role.)

If you want to argue against leveling roulette having at least a duo option, please use arguments that are NOT invalidated by the Level 50 Roulette, Expert Roulette etc. not having any party size restrictions and STILL running all the time.

DR Leveling/Trials/Main Scenario were added to entice players to help others complete story dungeons/trials.

DR 50 and Expert were added as tome bonuses to hit your weekly cap without having to grind the same dungeons over and over again (yes, you still grind the same dungeons, but at a much lower frequency after the introduction of DR). DR 60 is just the level 60 version of 50.

Better?

DR Leveling/Trials/Main Scenario also give tomes out, only reason I run them.

Honestly... if there's gonna be any marriage roulette it should be more about randomly pairing you with someone else for the eternal bond for people who have a difficult time finding someone on their own. kinda like blind dating except for the use of the wedding rewards only. The only issue with this idea is there's plenty of people who would automatically assume they're dating the other person by default when it would only be about helping people get the rewards.
