Thank you!
With all due respect, but at the current moment in which the game is, with a critical loss of players, with an impressive number of bugs above average compared to another game, and the company’s inability to release patches and practical solutions that work without creating more problems, with feedback from disappointed players seeing that the entire game has been programmed with dirty code that does nothing but cause problems every time they want to get their hands on it, with important problems based on something as vital as the mechanics are, which make the game become a boring and repetitive farming game, without real pvp options, … with all that … what you propose is at least inappropriate, that is, nobody of the company should not even spend a single second in considering something like this, and they should use all their time tomorrow and surely that of the next 6 months to a year, to fix the game. since this is the titanic, with gaps and sinking, and you ask if they could dedicate attention to putting more beautiful cutlery.

Many games have started to opt away as it brings up the question of same sex marriage, which especially for Western games is a topic that can not be avoided. Lotro had it planned back then and opted out, RoM did have it (you could marry anyone you liked), and it was silly fun and led to some funny drama. PWI has a marriage system, but only same sex, and clearly there are still other games, especially Asian ones, but from big Western titles it seems to be noticeably absent.
Wow, GW2, ESO, the current Western behemoths of the industry, all lack this feature, and I’d say the reason lies in the contention the subject can end creating.
While I think marriage systems are fun, are clearly enjoyed by some players, and can provide avenues for additional horizontal content, I do not see New World daring to touch it, for the same reason other big Western titles don’t get involved with it. It’s a shame, but I’d not blame the companies for it, but rather think it’s about real world society, which may turn it into a difficult subject.
I married a man on UO, in game, many years ago. Six months later we met in RL, we then married in RL a year later and we live happily ever after, this will be our 20th anniversary this year. So yes I’m all for it!

ahahahahhaha, you need to agree with me, if they wont or arent prepared to listen some proposals, they dont open the game, stay closed and fix everything
Thats a true point, but New World did advertising showing up people of the same sex dating as a couple… If they worry about it, dont show.
Congratulations, i hear some people about PW, Tibia, UO that who has married in real life too. I think that can be great to bring us another view of the game. MMORPG dosnt need to be only kill each others and getting stuffs, need to be perfect like a real life, same problems, same things.
I know of one questline involving a same sex couple in New World, but there is still a difference compared to creating an actual marriage system for players. As a Western game, it basically can not allow itself to exclude such an option in a wedding system, it would cause an outcry, but if you do allow same sex marriage in the game, you could end with problems in countries where such unions are not even allowed by law. Not sure this could even end in a ban of the game, but either way, the issue is unfortunately beset with trouble no matter what.
Lotro offered an ‘adoption’ system, basically you could adopt another player, and it also offered a surname option, a player could freely write up for themselves. The latter at least would offer players who wish to show a connection, a simply path for that.
As said, I am all for marriage systems, they can provide great fun, but benefits (if any) have to also be kept very minimal, really, to not disadvantage players who can’t partake in them (imagine someone who games, but their real life partner does not - it can cause unpleasant scenes at home if the player marries someone else in game).
So no matter what, there is a lot which needs to be considered, it is no straight forward matter by any means for a variety of reasons.
Oh hell no. I play games specifically because they are not like real life.
I dont care if you did a wrong choice of who you will marry, this is your choice, in game you can talk in voip and check is he/she who you wanna, you can marry with people who you are married in real life, its just a content that can be introduced to the game, who is char lover like another things in game, dont only pvp and DG all the time…
I would just love to see some formal connections between players that would allow sharing house and storage. As for that being a dangerous situation for theft, that would be the players fault for trusting someome they don’t know in RL.
Does anyone really want to get married on an island where you can’t die? that here forever is forever I have… that is scary and not corruption.

Let’s not, thanks 
Well considering there are quite a few ppl who play as a different gender than they are IRL the whole same sex marriage argument doesnt really apply here.
There is more than enough posts concerning the flaws in the game. It’s refreshing to see thoughts on possible new features.

True!
Everybody is posting about problems to fix in this game and few ppl want to make new content or thinking about other things that can be great to community. Another great think its the beer bar of all cities, its gonna be great be introduced some actions there, sit, ask a beer, food etc. Some little changes, can change the game.

And? Is this a great thing? I can see now what you are, just a guy who never had played MMORPG in your life, its your first?

MMORPG: Players assume the role of a character in a virtual world, usually medieval and/or magical, and in all of their roles, including interaction with other characters and armed combat.
You arent ready for this conversation, cya the great married man…
