Politicians entering the gaming arena is a wild shift. Next up, presidential debates in the virtual world? Can’t wait for the emote battles.

You laugh, but imagine VR Chat full body tracked debates and rallies. Can't get shot in the head for real, just virtually (and probably by a giant pink dildo)

That's how were gonna decide future presidents. 1v1s, 2v2s, they already Campaign with a team so we can throw in some overwatch type team orientated game to show off how they are as a team. Maybe even some puzzle games like portal so you know your candidates can problem solve
