From The Ashes Episode 22: Player Union  - The Ashes of Creation podcast produced by The Dungeon Crawler Network! Join Aggelos and Thais, the Founders of The Dungeon Crawler Network, as they bear witness the rebirth of the MMORPG genre from the ashes of an industry that has left gamers behind!

This week, Aggelos is joined by Thais for a special Pillars of Creation segment where the pair sit down to discuss the idea of player unions through marriage. We analysis what other games have done for player unions in the past and see what would fit into Ashes of Creation.

Hope you enjoy it @Varkun We did have some fun theory crafting stuff that we would like to see and what we wouldn't like to see in Ashes of Creation.

I did yes,@Aggelos, a marriage system is not something I have honestly given much thought to myself yet others would clearly enjoy and embrace an in depth system. While the perks of a marriage system would have to fit the lore of ashes if done well it really could add another layer of immersion, though it must be balanced and as was pointed out any benefits should not become essential for game play.
Things like fast travel would essentially be lore breaking as far as ashes is concerned, experience bonuses could be open to RMT if they provided too much of a boost or if relationship's are too easily entered into and broken. Shared banking is an interesting idea, are those extra bank slots worth the risk, for me no lol.
Am looking forward to next weeks episode, thank you both.
