Why do you need Anet to create something different? If it isn't for RP, and isn't for the bonuses, then you and whomever decides that they like the idea could just be married. Hold a ceremony. Invite friends/guildies. Bring food and stuff. Have musicians. Or are you looking for some public validation of your commitment to another player? Some kind of tag? Or title? I'm not trying to be obtuse. I simply don't understand why the devs should spend time on this sort of thing. Also, due to the age rating of the game, I would find it highly unlikely that Anet would want to dabble in this sort of thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's your proof that the gaming community wants in game marriages.. hahah that is some funny stuff right there. Seriously small sample size put out on a forum that likely counts for < 1% of the gaming community. Devs.. must develop marriage system, buffs to go with it, housing, kids, divorce court, settlement laws and everything else alongside it.. cos 53 people say they want to be married.. ahhmmm... wouldn't that mean one of them gets left out btw, or are we talking open marriages, do they have the chance to change religions to allow more than one wifey/husband... whilst were at it will there be equal rights and voting laws etc, etc depending on where they actually live in the real world or will Tyria now have to enforce its own rulesets around this... Suggest you stop watching things like Jerry Springer or Jeremy Kyle and come back to the real world, butterflies and all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even attending an ingame wedding would constitute some form of roleplay scenario. Maybe ask for a real life invite from those friends/guildmates.. at least then you will know where you stand when your request gets denied by them ): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It think its you who are now trying to backpeddle your assumption of just how many you thought wanted this ridiculous idea implemented ingame... but your lack of proof other than a handful of players in another of your polls seems to show nothing more than that.. a few and that is in no way factual evidence that it is something this community wants .. therefore ANET need do nothing more than chuckle and splutter their morning coffee over the screen when trying to take this seriously. Bottom line is you made out this was in high demand.. now its just about you and a few of others, likely in your guild or RP list.

That is not what your post said and I think you know it.. as a counter Kheldorn asked you how many when you made your statement "considering how many want this"... your answer was to provide nothing more than a small sample.. look up what that means, it kinda means not that much in the context of what you made it out to be. Sure your not the only one, but neither is there a large number of players like you were making out based on your evidence and certainly nowhere near indicative enough to make ANET take it remotely serious.

I agree that adventures and mini games are wasted resources, just like marriage system is going to be. SAB and Jumping puzzles are played regularly, especially when connected with achievements. > a lot of things in the game are not liked by majority... Tangled Depths map... I love this map but majority hates it. and yet TD meta event is played every day every 2 hours (it has 2h timer right?), people complete this map every day, do events on it every day > it doesn't mean they shouldn't be made. minority who love those content are paying customers too. Actually it does, because what you ask for in this thread is not fluffy skin or a title, but whole new concept with unique buffs and UI changes. Ultimately, devs will judge if it's worth to put effort in it. But if you ask me, I want other stuff, like build templates or customisable UI to be done instead of fluff non-content like marriage system.

You were the one making the statement and making out it was a bigger thing than what your poll made out.. backpeddle all you want, but you blew your whole "considering just how many want this" theory to pieces when you tried to prove your claim. You think 50 names out of 100k, 300k, 1mill, 3.3mill (or whatever the latest guessed game pop is) will make ANET stop and think.. we should do this. Now if your poll had showed 5000 names perhaps, then things might start to go beyond a seriously small sample size into small sample size.. then maybe if you got 20k names it might be something ANET might think to develop a revenue stream around.. cos at the end of the day GW2 is a product and it needs to make money not just cost money.. and developing this stuff costs money, then of course they have to support it, nuts bolts and all.

DeanBB.4268 Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Questions: 1) I have 34 characters. How do they all get married? 2) What happens when the player of a character I'm married to quits the game? I'm stuck forever since they can't agree to the divorce? You claim it's not about the bonuses, but your signature suggests otherwise. So, if it's not about the bonuses, then all you need is wedding attire, flowers, a place, friends to witness, and food & entertainment afterwards -- assuming you are thinking of a "western wedding" or whatever that would be called (norn may prefer slaughtering something, charr sacking a town, whatever). I see all those things in the game right now. Lion's Arch has a venue and a flower merchant. Gem store stuff, of course. Friends... you're on your own there. I'm all for it, just eliminate any bonuses and penalties, dowry and divorce fees, and provide a means of one-sided divorce. Oh, and add mistresses/adulterers/etc to the game as well.

Friends... you're on your own there. > it's about bonuses, being able to show off ur marriage status... it's like showing off a legendary weapon, hence the cosmetic wedding rings from gemstores. and having a functionality like inviting friends/guildmates to ur wedding... i mean we have boxes o' fun and stupid crap like aviator's memory box, yet nobody complain about these things??? WHY??? why is in game marriage more disastrous than those stupid things? and minis... what is even the point of minis? why are resources wasted on them?

Because these are toys and post processing effects, while your idea of marriage system requires creating whole new framework and UI solutions which costs time and money which could be used for more popular requests instead or even content creation.

Orpheal.8263 Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 No to this concept... have posted some time ago in an other thread concept about Marriag,e which is the only way how Id accept somethign like that added as feature into the game... But this "concept" I find personalyl absolutely terrible and has nothign to do anymore with a fun feature - when it comes down to such nosense like dowries and divorces feeling to players more like "punishments" they way how the Op wants these things to functionize... If peopel would use only more the now functionizing search function, we'd not see the same topics and ideas appear again every X months after an initial thread has basically disappeared liek far beyong like page 5+ or so after the frontpage of the forum, until where lazy people are willign to search if there exist already similar threads (if at all) xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's 46% of a self-selecting sample of less than 200 people. Any statistician would tell you that that makes it essentially worthless. The small sample size counts against it by "widening" the margin for error (for 194 people, the margin is +/- 7% or thereabouts if we assume a 95% confidence interval(1)), but the "self-selecting" part means that all you can really say is that 90 of 194 people who voted voted that way. What does "self-selecting" mean? Well, it means that the people who participated saw the thing and decided to participate. It's likely that people supporting it are overrepresented relative to the overall game population. In reality, *all* polls are self-selecting (none of the poll-taking organisations can *compel* participation), although people who get a call from Gallup or Neilson are more likely to participate even if they aren't interested, compared to "oh, Dog, another poll, next thread" where nobody will even notice if you don't participate. You don't have to speak to a person (even a voice on the phone) who has just spoken politely to you, and say, "No." So there will be a large slice of people who see the poll and say, "meh," and most of those would not have voted "yes". They would, at best, vote "meh". (1) That is, the probability of the *true* result being within 7 points of the poll result is 95%. Well, except for the "self-selecting" part.

Becoming a widower is NOT a fun experience. I've been one for nearly three years, and nothing about it is fun, and nor was the way it happened, and yet you want to make it into a sort of game? What got into your head when you decided to say that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
