THIS is the PS2 graphics San Francisco shot I was talking about. It looks so fake in comparison to all the other city or ship shots in the series. I think it's just too clean and all made of the exact same metal texture, whereas in say Star Trek Into Darkness (with admittedly a far higher budget) loads of building materials and clearly dozens of different generations of buildings were depicted.
I remember the Golden Gate on fire at the end of the Dominion War, so maybe a huge chunk of the city burnt down and was replaced at the same time.
As well as a crashing Dreadnought, in Wrath of Khan Too, which might have happened in this alternate time line too?

I pointed out to you that the name Ted Forward predated Guinan being on the Enterprise. That's a fact.
You countered with a hypothesis that maybe Troi was just using the name retroactively. That's speculation.
It's possible that Guinan had her bar in LA even before she joined the crew, maybe even decades or longer before that, and we don't really know if the wasn't already on the Enterprise-D in Season 1. Maybe there just wasn't a reason for her to show up
No, that only happened in Into Darkness which was a Kelvin timeline film. It never happened in TWOK.
I said Too, not Two.
It's alternate from the Kelvin timeline where the Dreadnought crashed.
Right, I agree there's no reason SF should look like it does in STID.
The Breen Raid on San Fransisco.
it’s a total different situation, I don’t have any problem with it. Also, I think it was mostly being IN the cube that triggered the attack.
Good. Works for me.
Let's get on with nitpicking other crap.

Isn’t this a reused shot (or at least CGI landscape) from Discovery anyway?

yes, however the bridge is up again in the 32th century. Also it has solar panels, like here qnd on discovery, whereas on TMP a tube-like train went over it.
Solar panels produce microscopic amounts of power compared to an antimatter reactor, and then we found out in Voyager that the Federation figured out how to recycle antimatter waste into fuel.
So, either the solar panels are heritage artifacts to maintain the historic authenticity of the bridge, or they are something else that just coincidentally look like solar panels.

Well ya gotta do something when people no longer use cars.
Historiclly authenticity.
San Francisco still has Cable cars in the 32 century.
Also we saw Dune Buggies in Nemesis.
I confused myself.......
yes, if it's simply that Guinan named new new bar after the ENT-D, it's not "wrong." Just kinda lame and flat.

And boy, do we do that with finesse.
The core of it yeah.

Was there more than one shot of this area in the episode? Because the tweet above has a screencap from this episode with more buildings in it.

The textures also seem more varied. But some of the buildings in your screen cap are more detailed.
