this tells me nothing about what the game will look like, or run like

I mean… This was the first trailer to stir up a bit of excitement for a game that has only just entered full-scale development. They probably don’t even yet know themselves what it will look like and how it will run on what hardware. Expecting that kind of info at this point is unrealistic

That holds only if you assume that random chance decides whether someone votes or not. That is a big assumption to make. A lot of factors that affect your ability or willingness to vote also affect your political leaning, so I highly doubt that it’s a reasonable assumption.
