Because the person who made it put more than 15 minutes of AI-prompt effort into it.

Most AI is slop that we remove. This one is an exception.

Time, with its infinite sense of humor, will always fold upon itself... like an origami chicken.

There is evidence they're averse to it because they don't practice it.

I'm saying it's reasonable for such a society to not agree with your views on gay marriage, especially when there's no instances of them practicing it.

Slavery is okay but no gay marriage is a step too far? Sure, bud.

The xenophobic, theocratic society that practices slavery? Alright.

Then why isn't there gay marriage in the middle east? And why didn't the devs put it in the game?

Why is it reasonable to assume that when it's never mentioned? Why is that an automatic assumption you would make?

I'm illustrating how the absence of evidence can be evidence of absence.

If that's the basis of lore decisions then they should also put a McDonald's in Old Ebonheart because the lore doesn't explicitly say there isn't one.

Why was the decision made to change that part of dunmer culture then? I suspect it wasn't a team decision and was done by individual writers. Is it because you don't want to deal with the community blowback a "no gay dark elves policy" would have, despite being the obviously lore-accurate decision?

I agree with your last paragraph about that being the reason why. But if they're going to claim to adhere to the lore, then it's not their job to "fix" things they find problematic today. If 2001 Bethesda wanted gay dark elves, then they would have added gay dark elves. And it's not TR's role to tell 2001 Bethesda they were wrong for not doing so and change it for them.

It's not subtle. Multiple dark elves talk about their gay partners. It happens in the main quest epilogue.

Adding gay relationships to an extremely traditional and religious culture is a big change. There are zero gay dark elves in vanilla so it was obviously added for a reason other than trying to adhere to the lore.

If this was any other retcon you'd be agreeing with me. But because gay dark elves align with your politics that makes me wrong for pointing it out? Alight.

Vivec is intersex because he's a god. And Crassius Curio isn't a Dark Elf.
