[@tornadofan5015]

Has anybody noticed that some of the issues are messed up? For example, it has Democrats as being against addressing climate change? I have also noticed other issue irregularities, but wondered if anybody else had noticed this?

[@Fadedthanahoeee]

Imma be voting for Trump, but what a cute game. It's nice to see something that isn't so stuck on the division going on in America, but makes something cute and fun.

[@BigCulpLarge]

Nikki Haley for president

[@JohnnyProctor9]

Can Trump go to prison in this game? "Lock him up!", "Lock him up!", lol! 😆

No, because game actually follow its rules

@@Jackfromshack - Okay, because it's not illegal to commit fraud and tax evasion, steal classified documents, sell state secrets to foreign interests, bribe people to lie so that you can win an election, threaten people to try to get them to rig an election in your favor, incite a revolt when you lose trying to get your followers to murder your own VP and the Speaker of the House, and refuse to deploy the National Guard to stop the riot at the Capitol because it's your supporters doing it in your favor?

Maybe if the game has a corruption mechanic, where you can corrupt the nation's courts. Like a certain Brandon and his allies.

[@Ezekielepharcelis]

Trump for President ! 😁

[@PeterHarlequinWhite]

Once you gave Trump "average" intelligence I saw the writing on the wall how compromised this is. You can't even be be honest with the objectivity true assessments. Can we at least be honest his consistent word salad, stating fiction as fact is not the mark of "average" intellect? And "hyper" stamina? He can't even stay awake on the first day of one of his dozen court cases. I realize you want to cater and not upset the right with accuracy but even this is laughable. He has (toxic) charisma in the same level of a cult leader and (some) money. That's all he's ever had going for him. His cult of personality overshadows his lack of empathy, self awareness and intellect. At least you describe is platform correctly, "populism". Also Biden as "sleepy"? Seriously, feeding into trumps spin? Average stamina sure, even a tick below that but come on. Have you seen the mans public schedule? More than "sleepy".

[@stardockgames]

Hello! We do multiple passes from team members to ensure a removal of bias. One thing to note about the stats is they are based around the same stat point system that the create a character is, so theres only so many points to assign. To that end you'll notice that Joe has overall a more positive spread of stats than Trump, the higher a stat rating is, the more points are used, and thus the less can be allocated to other stats

[@estrofago]

Its not that deep lib

[@PeterHarlequinWhite]

@@stardockgames First, I appreciate the reply. That said I see your point around the limit points, you weren't just assigning them solely based on factual traits. In that case fair enough. However something moving forward, to create more accurate templets for all the candidates perhaps forgo the same point limitation used for crate a character and just assign the stats you feel best reflects their real world skills. I don't think many folks would be upset about that in lieu of more accurate pre-mades who are supposed to be based on real life folks. Just a thought. That said I hope you can see my point about the 'sleepy' stat, that does seem to feed into one of the many trump character assassinations and does seem like a pro-trump cheap shot. Thanks again for the reply.

[@grdfhrghrggrtwqqu]

@@PeterHarlequinWhite tbf you do see that with some issue scores. There are some candidates that are straight up more unelectable than others. They can get through, but they require more work. Like Christie, Warren, and Bloomberg being harder to win with. So there's definitely a lot more nuance than meets the eye. At least they didn't make Biden's eyes look like a total caricature of himself in 2020. So this is actually a version where Biden looks a lot better than he did in the past game. A big improvement!
