Can anyone say why Serana cannot be married?

Post » Tue Jul 16, 2013 6:00 pm

I just don't get why Serana cannot be married?!? Can anyone...and I mean it, ANYONE show why Bethesda prevented us all from marrying Serana????? Don't say "Because she's SSSOOO hot." I mean it, Serana is the follower you can most emotionally connect to in Skyrim.

Especially in my current playthrough, I have an Amulet of Mara, and I for the first time, I see the dialogue option: "Ever thought of getting married?". It actually makes my heart heavy with sorrow knowing she will only say no, and that she is uncomfortable around temples and what not. The conversations you have with her over the questline for Dawnguard, you can tell definitely later that she shares feelings for us. Why does Bethesda do this?!? Serana is the best follower I could personally ask for, after getting her, I never recruit another follower besides HER. I would personally vote her on as the Dragonborn's main love interest. This opinion is not because of how attractive she looks. If I met a woman like her emotionally. I would fall in love.

So please, does ANYONE know personally why Bethesda did this?!? Do they plan on finally releasing a new update in which it can give you the option to marry her??? And in that case, why hasn't Bethesda released new updates like they said they would in their final message saying they would make no more DLCs???

Can someone ever show me a way to communicate with Bethesda directly about stuff like this?!?

Marriage in this game is such crap, it's pretty much irrelevant. Use the power of your mind/imagination and just role-play it.

I concur.

DG seems like a DLC with a bit of romance in it. I hate romance stuff in games and films but Bethesda done a good job with it in DG.
The DG DLC is a better love story than twilight.
I am glad I cant have my characters marry her because she would be the only one my characters would marry.

How exactly would you explain the priest of Mara that you'll bring a vampire into his temple? Not to mention it almost borders with necrophilia.

Seems like it's a theme that you can't marry any NPCs that are interesting, have some backstory and who you connect with. Erandur, Ralof, Hadvar, Ulfric, the members of the Thieves Guild, the list can go on...

Well they do already offer beastiality with Aela. Bethesda are an open-minded lot with these sorts of things.

Answer to question: No.

The player decides their character's love interest.

I'd have to say no. Because the Dragonborn is a protagonist with different personality traits depending on the one who made her/him. So yes, it could, but it also couldn't.

I know some say its because she's shaman, but I'd be fine with her being unable to live anywhere else, but only if they'd let me buy a house there. Let me make a hearthfire house there or something. Make it in the style of their homes. Then if you try to marry her, she'll say are you absolutely sure? You'd need to live here with me.... Me: YES YES YES!!!!!!! I want to be a Skaal anyway! So when you're not adventuring, she's still in Skaal village like always.

The end. Happy ever after.
