Suggestions/Comments: Enable marriage with characters

Dear adventurers and black spirit lovers,

Foreword: Today I'm coming to you with an idea, so please don't be put off by the title.

I recently asked myself what could be improved or added as a feature in Black Desert. This idea was not easy to get and formulate, so I will formulate it in detail after this text.

The idea in detail:

Of course, as you can see from the title, you could get married to your character in the game. Among other things, I thought about where you could get married, who could get married and how, and how many characters could marry other characters. Because of the family system, of course, you have to look at how to implement this. 

Let me summarise all the facts in the overview, then I will go into th details:

-  Where can you get married?: All cities that have a church or similar are considered Veila, Heidel, Calpheon City, Grana and Valencia City.

-  Who can get married?: Since the wedding refers to the whole family, the whole family. This also settles the question of what happens, for example, if character A and character B play same-sex classes...

-  Is a speacial object required?: Yes, a wedding ring. This can made from gold, silver or platinum bars with gemstones. The item is consumed at the wedding.

Advantages that may result from this marriage:

Directly below, I list all the benefits that could result from this marriage:

-  A very special title: This title could be "Married to...", this title is given with the surname of the other person.

-  A special buff when travelling together in a group. Be it gathering, killing monsters or sailing, something similar.

How is the separation supposed to work?:

Via the NPC through which you also performed the wedding.

Well, that summarises my ideas on the subject. Maybe it helps that I used a mobile MMORPG as a partial source. So the concept wouldn't be new either. 

Thanks to everyone who has read this far

With kind regards

PA refused our ask of making any kind of custom titles, so an ask like this will most likely fall into the same category. 

However, if this were to be an item you can purchase for 20k pearls- then they might consider. 

That could be a fun and neat thing if implemented properly. It would give players a reason to group and do things together. It'd be neat if they'd expand on that concept. You're pretty much a solo mercenary in this game (even with a guild). A guild just makes it so your mercenary has a company. It'd even be nice if there was romance with npcs (not the valentine's day date bs) but actual romance like bioware is known for (Dragon Age, Mass Effect, and SWTOR). Anything to add to the overall experience and story. Breathe new life into it and give it some flavor. I know there are at least two other games in which marriage to other players is available: Final Fantasy 14 and Elder Scrolls Online. Both can be rather glitchy in my experience though which is a shame escpecially for how expensive the marriage is in FF14. But when has Pearl Abyss ever implemented anything properly? 

Hello,

A marriage usually involves more?

Shared silvers, let your partner spend all your gold.

Shared residence so partners can use any item within other players residence, let your partner trash your place and make a mess

Let them take your horse or boat and ride / sail away.

Once you are broken and poor, why not consider the divorce?

A fee of 50% of all your silvers.

A battle for ownership of residency, that's right you got married and now your partner has a 50% chance to win your home and possessions.

Make this a lottery type thing.

I'm sure there are many more pros and cons that can be thought of too :)

I would very much enjoy, being able to marry my other half in game as we already play together so you get a +1 from me 

That would be cool but

You don't need PA to add anything ot E-RP in calpheon.  

I saw this title and laughed at the Engrish, but I roll female chars and I'd marry one of my friends for luls if this was in the game haha. Of course, it would be a meme, but I wouldn't be mad. I don't think it would be erp-y.

Just a title and buffs to play together would be funny. Reminds me of when I went out to a movie w/ my friend and we were gonna get the deal for 2 people. Dude was like uh yeah can we get the thing with... two drinks and one popcorn? The worker was like you mean the COUPLES SPECIAL?? it's like NO. haha.

this will surely save bdo!
