MMORPG Will Offer Same-Sex Marriage Option

Been playing SMT Imagine (based on the Nocturne/Persona universe) which is another Aeria supported title (fun game too btw) and cannot really say I am surprised.   Not overly alarmed either.  Homo and Bi sexuality is a reality.  One can either accept it, hide in a closet or come out of said closet (puns intended).   LOL it as always been out there (if avoided) that you never really know the true age or gender of the person you cybered with in a game.. now I guess it matters even less. 

BTW that ALOT of AP (Aeria Points) for those rings, I mean the good weapons in SMT runs around 400-500 AP.

I want to direct everyone's attention to this part of the report....

"Once married, the couple will be granted unique features which include the ability to summon their significant other to their location, as well as special healing abilities during battle."

The people I have played games with (who are also completely addicted to Korean MMOs) will tell you right off, any advantage you can gain for your character over other people's characters will put you over the top and secure you a high rank on the server or keep you alive in PvP longer. As hot-button as this topic is I'm willing to believe that players simply wanted these advantages for themselves and their friend without having to trash their existing character because it didn't match up politically...

Edit: Yes I know some people are very serious about the marriage option but as games and gamers go, it looks to me like an inventive way to establish an in-game buddy system with perks. Remember Soul Linkers in RO?

Now if Dreams of Mirror wasn't so creepy looking...

Hmm, well, if you look at the game from certain perspective, same sex marriage will mean kids who touch the game will suddenly become gay, meaning the game will have to be brought down to make certain people happy.

Well this is going to piss off certain groups with "higher morals".  This will cause anarchy... ANARCHY I say!!!
