In this episode of the Time Tale podcast we discuss “The Death of Marriage?”. Our conversation explores the evolving concept of marriage through the lens of our fictional online world, Dev. We look at the difference between traditional views on marriage and the version in Dev.

This contrast highlights the clash between traditional values rooted in religion, societal expectations, and familial pressure, and Dev’s preference for more fluid and open relationships.

Is the traditional institution of marriage becoming increasingly outdated? How does the promise of life without end change our view of marriage? How does the rise of new technology change societal norms?

Dev holds up a mirror for us to view society through these stories and conversations. Is marriage really everything we claim it is? Has it failed more than we would like to admit? Are we blindly doing what tradition says without questioning the purpose and result of centuries of this same old tradition?
