For example, I deduced that something happened to Kirito and Asuna's marriage early on from the fact that one of the rings you have equipped at the beginning becomes unable to be equipped at a certain early point in the game, closely followed by an Asuna sidequest taking her and Kirito to a church, which yields a picture of a ring in the cutscene. That, and then somewhere around the 85th floor, Kirito fights a mini-boss with her, and when you win, whatever ring is in your main slot is replaced with a a ring that is presumed to be a marriage ring, due to its nonexistant stats.

That is just one example of how one can figure out the plots without being able to read the language of the game.
