That is true, which is more strange as to why the Japanese version has same sex marriage in the first place, or strongly hinting at least. Though the other 14 states would be upset and loud enough for Ninten to censor it, since they like to try to please everyone....

Trying to please everyone is probably the reason it's in the game. People were vocally displeased with its absence from Awakening and Tomodachi Life. Reporters said they were out of touch with Western markets. So, primarily to please Western markets they add a same-sex marriage option to Fates. Certainly some Japanese gamers will be happy about it, but they aren't the ones who kicked up a storm over the issue.

It being limited to only two partners could suggest several things, most likely that it was added late in development.

Pretty sure we can consider the US, where same-sex marriage is legal in 36 out of 50 states, more open-minded towards the subject than Japan, where same-sex marriage is legal nowhere.

Yeah, I agree, though Nintendo has tried so on different occassions to take routes to please everyone, but still ends up upsetting a lot of people, so I wouldn't be surprised if they did so with Fates, as much as it would annoy me as well.

Yeah, that is true too. Quite a lot of people lashed out at Nintendo for cutting out same-sex. I hope nothing is cut when bringing it to the west.

same sex marriage is trending on different games. if you are against same sex marriage just ignore it in the game and still find the opposite sex you like.
it is just the media trying to make it a big big news.

its a nice little thing to add to the world.  and it doesnt break the story because you cant marry everyone with everyone. 

i dont realy understand why this is a big thing, some people are gay and stupid enough to marry, why shouldnt those people be part of Videogames?

and NO, SJWs didnt have anything to do with this, they hate gay men just like they hate every other men, maybe more because more men = more patriarchy



Alright Marth, kiss your playboy days goodbye cause you will be homo in the upcoming game.



Yuri, here I come.



How will you have kids now? lol



I'm gonna complain about this! But for some reason I'm not gonna complain about female same-sex marriage.
