Democracy 3

Game breaking bug at startup

This is a good idea but poorly executed. I've enjoyed previous Democracy games but this version has a game breaking bug when starting a new game that makes it impossible to enjoy. You start every new game with zero political party support, and I mean zero. In fact, the entire population is a member of the opposition party. You get zero members, zero activists, and the opposition gets 100% members and activists. Your overall popularity might start at 3% max and will be almost impossible to get up without cheats. After doing a little research I found on the game's website an active forum post that goes back over a year where the developer refused to acknowledge this is a bug despite many users providing screenshots and feedback about it. There is a text file you can edit in the game folders where you can get party membership to change, but it also makes the game unstable and you will see your popularity go from 30% to 60% in one turn then fall to 20% the next turn. If this bug ever gets fixed this is easily a 4 star game. Having this kind of bug at start, and what looks like no support from the developer for over a year gets this a 1 star.
