In-game marriage, will it make a return?

[Moiren]

I only want to see it in game if same sex marriages are allowed. No need for discrimination.

Ungh... I totally forgot about the SSM issue before, If there ever was a reason to NOT put marriage in the game, the SSM issue is definitely it. The drama that will erupt will likely cause many people on both sides of the issue quit this game.

They don't have to take a "stance" on the issue either way, they could just not specify any gender requirements.

I hope weddings return, even though I never had one or even attended to one in FF11. I'm sure they are pretty nice events that make some parts of the community stronger.

I did however get me an opaline dress. Those look wonderful. I hope we get some really pretty gear options in FF14 as well.

That's cool. Who would want to marry a girl anyway?

In the mean time why don't we have them take out the Chocobo raising, this is obviously wasted time on something we don't need. Actually, lets take out all Social aspects in the game, who the hell needs that in a MMO?

MMO's are an amalgamation of things:

Social Aspects
Ability Aspects
Determination Aspects

I'm sure there's more. But just because YOU don't enjoy it does not mean it shouldn't be in the game. Some people dislike raid type scenarios, should those be removed or never designed? There's a reason there's dozens of aspects added with each patch/ex-pack, so that there's something there for everyone and not just one type. This falls into the social aspect, something you're not fond of for whatever reason.

And I'll continue the broken record statement: No one's asking for it right now. There are indeed more important things to be focused on at the moment. However, some would like to see it added down the road in an ex-pack or when appropriate.

OT

I wouldn't mind seeing it added to XIV, again as long as same genders are permitted and cross races are permitted.

I never said I didn't like it or it was/would be a waste of time. I was saying in light of everything else and it being a player driven game people should initiate and make the weddings happen themselves. Hell I am sure if they see the forums lighting up by user inspired created content they would be a lot more likely to give in and make it official.

I mentioned several ideas and thoughts about it also I mainly said right now I don't think the community is fitting, though again most of you agree you would just like to see it added sometime in the future. Until then lets show them some inspirational ideas by hosting player based weddings with pictures and post them on the forums. Though honestly as I said before as well I don't think currently the community is up to it, maybe after 2.0 release and player housing comes out and plenty of content to keep everyone happy is when they should worry about the social fun aspects. Though you mentioned Chocobo raising for a point, that is actually not a social aspect of the game but for entertainment plus it has actual beneficial results because of the buddy system. Plus it was their idea to implement it and has already been worked on so it is in no way related to the points I was making.
