Final Fantasy 14 feels like a safe place for gender expression and queerness in a way no other MMORPG really does. Despite that, the world—and its main story—don't really acknowledge our existence in any meaningful way.
The wider game has one instance of a confirmed queer couple I could find or remember. Ah, you might think. That's nice, what are their names? "Blundering Treasure Hunter" and "Steadfast Companion". They give you a side-quest for a dungeon, that's the confirmed rep. Also—those two NPCs I mentioned vanish once you've done the quest, something I discovered while trying to get a screenshot for this piece. Though this empty, rainy picture of where they used to be kinda helps prove my point.
