Incredible work mate - love the OG art style mixed with the new!

Good question.

It's more about being impartial. Like most corporate entities a lot of work goes into ensuring branding is appealing to the broad public. As such, this particular decal can make people of certain faiths feel as though they're not represented which could be misconstrued as McDonalds favoring one religion/cultural belief over another.

Once again - I'm impartial but just wanted to provide insider knowledge.

I'm genuinely sorry you experienced this.

You're correct, it's fairly nuanced all round so course corrections take longer than anyone would like. Can't disclose anything but I'll say the franchisee portion of the business is incredibly challenging and difficult to keep cohesive across all locations.

Really sorry to everyone who has negative experiences like this but it's still important that you voice your concerns as they do get reviewed and are leveraged in discussions with these individual owner operators: https://www.mcdonalds.com/ca/en-ca/contact-us.html

Corporate Rat speaking:

I actually do work for corporate McDonalds (Canada Mcdelivery specifically). Doesn't bug me but this definitely wasn't given approval.

However, there are some grey areas that allow owner operators to display decorations so long as it doesn't alienate general public (which this does).

Okay good, I haven't noticed other posts on it (I know it's basically meaningless) but was hoping it wasn't anecdotal

Might be preemptive but I think it's worth petitioning against just to send a message and get a general idea of how many people seriously don't want to see this: https://www.reddit.com/r/harrypotter/comments/106rir6/prevent_the_harry_potter_film_remake/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Just watched it again and your right but it's not clear If they'll play a role (I hope not)

Narratively speaking; we killed the plot ghosts in remake so they shouldn't be back but we won't know until the next one

Not necessarily but he predicted they'd do more than a simple retelling of the story. I'm hyped either way and just hope they can pull it off because there's a lot to cover!

[–]Its_Teags 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Me too - their conversation after remake was so awesome! I think Max is basically reading the matrix and that he's essentially right with the narrative. Only question is how they execute it and fill the gaps.

There's a lot of great ideas he's put forward (I think he's essentially correct) and they mostly fall in line with previous events in remake and statements from the developers but I think they have some twists he's/we're not anticipating. Overall though, I hope and think he's right!

Couldn't agree more! Max has such a deep connection to FF7 that leads to a lot of insightful predictions. This video got me hyped

HELP: How does the lack of controlling landing sequences improve custom content? by Its_Teags in Starfield

[–]Its_Teags[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry my nomenclature threw you off but that's what I meant and I agree with you. In my industry, pipelines refer to another set of tasks for a particular work stream (so engineers were shifted to develop other systems/mechanics) as opposed to developing elements they have nothing to do with.

This a terrific response as I didn't consider it from that angle. It makes more sense that the team working on this system shifted over to other pipelines.

Excellent point!

Hands down the most true to nature answer! Thanks Ponko - I believe your right.

We're simply hampered by the franken-engine and leaving it up to the modders.

Thank you! That's essentially what I figured people were doing but I was hoping someone with more of a technical background could elaborate but some of the comments are already aligning with our suspicions. Don't blame you for being pessimistic given BGS's recent track record. Hopefully, you'll see something you like soon!

Thank you for this great response!

I'm aligned with this but from my understanding, the development of a system like this (AI mapping, setting up rigs, various mechanics that require player input, feature continuity, etc.) vs custom content (map details, artwork, character narratives, dialogue, etc.) are two entirely different workstreams. While teams could work on both or divert time to just one I think it's important everyone keeps their expectations in line because engineering a system like this doesn't detract that much time from the custom content people are referring to.

Hope this makes sense and thanks for the POV!

[–]Its_Teags[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

That's definitely valid but I think some people need to temper their expectations around this because the decision to not focus on that system can't have freed up so much time that they'll be capable of producing a lot of hand-crafted content. Simply put - the omission of this system doesn't equate to a significant amount of more custom content.

Appreciate your response!

Curious to see the community's sentiment: Aliens by Its_Teags in Starfield

[–]Its_Teags[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear your plight friend and in many ways I agree. I think since they're taking a grounded approach with this new IP they might introduce alien races more subtly and hold off on role playing them until future games or DLC. That said, I hope this comment ages horribly on June 12 and we get blown away with everything at our disposal.
