Just stating the obvious. This game is Japanese and in their culture marriage is sacred. I know someone who's in a polygamous relationship, very unhappy person because she realizes she's never going to feel special being just a number so I hope they never treat it as the new normal xD

They have no control over their own lore/worldbuilding. So might as well marry 10 people. Think the only limitation is gameplay and they want you to pay for each one

Gay couples can marry, so might as well assume that its also lore accurate. The lore is full of contradictions at times though.

ARR had a gay couple, that was discriminated against in the story, but I have no idea if it was because they were gay or from different cultures / races.
The races mixing narrative is bullcrap though cause we see multiple races mingling. A miqo hyur couple in ala mhigo talking of starting a family. At least a couple of hyur hitting on lalafel / gegerujus Costa Del Sol harem. Who knows how many prostitutes from different races.
That Highlander dude with his two Miqote in Thanalan.
I think only Ishgard is against mixing (Hilda)

Regardless to say, if you want people to feel like they relate with a game and IRL there's 5% gay people... It might be best to not make that 50% in game xD

I want to be able to marry more than one friend on my character, is there any hope for this? Maybe as an option (like maybe it could be something everyone involved has to confirm?)
I mean, I have 2 ring slots, not to mention 10 fingers...

Seems like a reasonable idea everyone will be normal about.

So out of touch.

No one is saying make the characters <Place Certain Concept Here>, they are saying allow players choose.
If anything, they don't even have to change how the Marriage Process Works?

Just have it becomes a one on one character eternal bond.
[Also, Saying Polygamy and Polyamory(/ all other Poly types by extension) as harems is very reductive.]

Bringing up the you know someone who is very unverifiable. and trying to come off as an expert on something you ain't. (Unless you yourself are in one.)

It's like if i am to suddenly say my Sibling is in a Polycule currently, and if they wanted to, I would support their decision if they are allowed to make the next step more permitted.

TLDR: It's just a system in a game, that could easily be made to allow you to have multiple connections to multiple characters.
[The System needs an update regardless, to ensure bonds are 100% Broken and can't be used to follow players. During such changes to long standing systems, can improvements or changes be added in.]

Also, no one is making this come off front and center in front of you.

<And to your "Know" someone. People's Lives are subject to their differences and beliefs. You could try to bring up how they're all gonna be that way. but at that point you turn to mocking other beliefs and cultures, who have their own good and bad.>

there is a way but isn't both sided sadly.

you get one person that will marry everyone but that person have to divorce every 2 weeks until everyone is wed with he/her.

everyone will be able to teleport to that person but the person can only teleport to the last person he/she wed.

but other then that there is the necklace I think on the migration that can also indicate it but I do think the problem in itself is mostly coding

Even though I'm four years late to the discussion, it would be cool to implement this at some point. But considering what in 2021 one of the most popular opposing views was "requesting such a feature at a time when actual content is getting pushed back is a weird request", think we can pull it away for a good while. Along with hat and hair support for vieras and hrothgars....better glamour system....inreased speed of release of new content in general...patches to jobs...please be patient, Yoshi-P is the only person working on this game, after all. Small indie-company, you know~?
