Unironically, I think this will be good. Not a masterpiece but a better than average slop-fest.

Just avoid the parts of the game that are fun and enjoyable because the design discourages it.

Imagine if you create an awesome combat system and then most players had to avoid it because of resource management.

alienation but its a transformation fetish where you become an alien.

why is inclusion in an often patriarchal/misogynistic and conservative institution as marriage the end-all-be-all of queer rights?

Legal protections mostly. If you get married, you have a right to see your spouse in the hospital. Otherwise, they're just another person even if you've been living together for 50 years. You also have a right to inheritance, the right to receive pensions and 401k, etc etc. An unmarried partner is essentially left with nothing unless explicitly stated in a will and even then they don't have all the legal protections.

Imagine living with someone for 20 years and they get into a car wreck, you can't see them before they die because you're married. You get kicked out of your home because legally you're just a roommate and have no right to stay in that house. Then, all the money your partner invested goes to their shithead parents who kicked them out as a child. None of that would happen if you were married.

Marriage is an outdated contract but the functions it provides are still important to society.

Edit: Obviously I support China but marriage isn't just a "proof of love" or some other sentimental thing.
