What was once an April Fool’s joke in Square Enix’s eyes has now become a profitable marketing venture for their MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV, which has been introduced to in-game marriages between love-struck male and female characters.
A heart-warming trailer introducing marriage to the game:
This matrimonial addition to the game naturally has a plethora of potential cash-shop items associated with it for those willing to splurge on their special day, although apparently no husband and wife special skills and bonuses – the update is available now.

2014 > no same sex option
Really now, this shouldn't even be something thats missing, sure adding it in to old systems is a pain however this was built using a modern game, there is literally zero valid excuses for that being missing
gays and lesbians doesnt exist in video games
Never played mass effect?
Overrated garbage
Try Dragon Age: Inquisition. So many gay options, straight romances are the minority. There's even a transgender minor character lol
dunno what DA:I game you've been playing.
It isn't missing. You can marry anyone regardless of gender.
Hmmm the article text suggested it was male to female only, in that case i apologise :P
You would be surprised at how sexist the FF14 player base are. I was there since alpha, and that community keep bashing the idea of allowing same sex relationship in the game, by using the worst insults possible. That's the makn reason SE couldn't do it.
Quit whining. You're an incredible minority of the population (Less than 1%) and nothing will change this. Nobody cares.
We pretend to care. It quiets them down for a bit.
The biggest travesty is that the Japanese think white is a good color for a man to wear. If you live in the real world, please never do this. You look like a gigantic fag.
Guy plays girl character, guy plays guy character, both get married and are technically fags. Problem solved.
uh ... this has a same sex option, male/male /and Female/female is perfectly possible (just the dress is girl only)
I always thought that people who said gays are stupid and somehow less human were completely wrong but... but but it seems they were.. right.
"but... but but" someone has butts on their mind, just like a gay.
I like big butts and I cannot lie... female butts though, I'm so very sorry.
fuck are you kidding they take this long to add this shit and I can't do it because I don't want a guy? fuck sqaure
except you can. go cry elsewhere
Its not genderlock, so you can go lesbo catgirls.
Which is actually 2 fat hairy guys playing as lesbo catgirls.
Never did get the appeal of playing the opposite gender in MMORPGs. Tried it once before and deleted the character minutes later, kinda embarrassing. Have always played my real gender in MMOs.
You're not alone in that. What I've noticed is that all MMO/RPG players are usually strictly one or the other. I myself play almost exclusively female characters as a man myself and know personally several people who do the same.
I also have friends who say as you do, that they just can't play as the opposite gender because it doesn't "feel right".
Just think it's rather interesting.
I do play female characters if the class is up for it.
I play strictly female characters if they're cute. I figured, if I'm staring at a an avatar for hours on end, it better fit the role and be pleasing to the eyes :)
I play almost exclusively female characters as a guy including FFXIV but I don't role play myself into the character. I just see a good looking female avatar who's story I'm watching play out like a novel or a movie.
If it were a First Person, I could see playing the correct gender roll, but if you have to stare at a hairy man's ass as a third person the whole time, it gets kind of nerve-wrecking... At least when you get to look at a hot female's ass you feel much more likely to continue to play 'god' with her life. And let's just say that's reward in itself.
I only play first person, but if I had to play third, that's how I'd roll.
(I await the day Illusion releases Battle Raper III with Online play and customizable characters... There'd be a game that finally beats DOA5- (with Nude Crack)...
My reasons why I always play female chars are these:
1: I like eye candy, staring at a nice female ass is alot better than staring at some guys ass for hundreds of hours. Yes I know how pervy this sounds, but my female chars in these games don't do anything for me in that sense, even though they are pretty hot.
2: Pretty much every game out there has males for the lead characters, finding a decent game with a female main lead is pretty hard. Outside of like tomb raider, and such.
3: Girls kicking ass rule :)
I don't roleplay or fake I am female, if someone asks I tell them I am male, and if you talk to me for a while its pretty damn obvious I am a guy irl, I don't try to hide it because well: its a damn videogame not a dating simulator. People take mmo's way to damn seriously, they are a game for fun, why does it matter what gender someone is irl when your playing some game? Mind you I do tend to be nicer to girls when I find out they are female irl (they get enough crap from people especally horney lonerhy teens), but if I don't know for sure I treat everyone the same.
All in all, its a videogame, its not real, if you get creeped out by people playing the opposite gender in a game, maybe you need to get checked upstairs, cuz you may have some kind of mental issue.
I wholeheartedly agree, Silveria. If I'm going to be staring at someone's ass for hours on end, it may as well be a nice ass.
I play japanese MMO and i obviously say "ore" to people not mistake. Some creepy players uses atashi, uchi etc... with stupid forced dialects.
Feels really creepy i should say. Since obviously 99% of people that plays MMO are men.
Actually like a lot of players plays with shemales to have a Waifu or basically speaking a "doll".
If you ever bought a figure, etc. you will know what i'm talking about.
I play a female miqo'te. My friends had always played females because "why should I stare at a guy's butt all day?" which I never really thought about it like that. I just randomly decided to try mithra after having extra change potions, and stuck with it. Their animations are just a lot better than the humes, and male counterparts, plus, you can take screens in whatever pose and outfit you want for fap material, as long as you don't turn homo and start hitting on guys, or try to get items from them, then there's not an issue.
Speaking by experience?
Meow!
> Which is actually 2 fat hairy guys playing as lesbo catgirls.
You probably fap to hentai written by and drawn by men. So when the girls in hentai talk, Those words were a man's words. When she spreads her legs, a man is spreading her legs for you.
A guy is making you cum.
And I don't care because it's fantasy, you aren't fapping to the guy. You are fapping to the fantasy. So I don't see "2 fat hairy guys playing as lesbo catgirls" as two guys getting married in a game. Rather these are two guys sharing a fantasy about two lesbian catgirls getting married.
And if I wasn't willing to share perverted fantasies with guys over the internet I wouldn't be in fucking sancom.
Your argument is disturbingly coherent.
Was gonna say. They learned that lesson the hard way with FFXI. I would hope they didn't make the same mistake twice.
same sex couples can get married, i play atm, my static leader is a male hyur(human) and he got married to our black mage who is a male miqo'te (cat guy) any gender any race.
"why he got to be black!"
wait a few days before gay, and lesbian activists protest for their right to marry in it even if most likely the actual gay people who play the game don't really give a rat's ass XD
you don't have to wait, you can do exactly that from the start.
they were already doing this since even since 1.0 lol
They had this way back in FFXI.
It was "meant more" in FFXI too, as GMs were present to make them official, at first anyway.
Player/Player marriage was always planned. The April Fools joke was a Player/NPC thing where you could court your favorite characters.
NOT PICTURED:
Players from an enemy faction/guild/whatever FFXIV has, kicking down the door and proceeding to re-enact the Red Wedding up in this bitch.
All I want to know is: "Can I cut another player's head off and proceed to sew a wolf's head in its place?"
Free Companies, and they don't work like that, everyone is technically allied, there is pvp, but it's not Free Company based. It's pvp skirmishes between 3 Grand Company factions, qued by individuals, FCs members can que while in a group together, but only if they belong to the same GC.
That sucks, lame carebear game.
Wizards can finally find love and happiness!
Mind Control.
That's how wizards fall in love.
no wizards in game, black mages are close.
oh nm, you meant the other type of wizard, my bad.
