If they don't show up then it advances the queue quicker than if they did show up. Then the person at the very end of the line gets the chance to ride instead of missing out. So it should be fully saturated throughout the day.
I think this is easier to manage at WDW than here at Disneyland.

Since everyone is on site for the most part at WDW there is a pool of people available to use.

Here at Disneyland we are mostly locals commuting in LA area traffic.

Certain rides with capacity restrictions it works fine but it wasn't uncommon for Rise and then especially MM Runaway Railway to run way under capacity with virtual queue.

For new park lands maybe, but new rides use virtual queues specifically to avoid this. Then in general they have the time-based economy with queues and fast passes that evens things out. I haven't really seen Disney fail in this way with new rides, at least at WDW.
They've been pretty dirty with recent new attractions.

A lot have been run under capacity to facilitate more sales of individual lightning lanes.

There isn't really a system to make sure people that receive a virtual queue early or late actually show up.

Will be interesting to see how they handle the Splash mountain retheme opening here at Disneyland as it will likely be opening at a season where demand for water attractions is at its lowest.

If it runs no standby line for any period of time outside maybe the first couple days of operation it will see hours of basically being empty.

I wonder if they did a "Closed Beta" of sorts, where they invite people representative of their target market to actually go through the whole experience. Feels like at least some of the problems that Jenny Nicholson went through could've been found earlier.
The only people Disney "tests" stuff with these days are their influencer crowd and paid celebrities. At least for high end or high demand experiences.

And it is rare for that crowd to give real feedback. They are almost all unpaid shills.

Disney has been known recently to disinvite or skip over inviting traditional press.

On the digital end, it sort of happened with the magic band launch here at Disneyland.

They launched magic bands here missing like half the features from WDW.

And since they did very little that you couldn't do with a smartphone no one bought them. Since no one bought them there was no incentive to add much in the way of features. And since the reason they introduced them into Disneyland was money we never got free ones with hotel visits so nothing was ever here to hook people on the idea of using magic bands.

So pretty much no one has magic bands.

The only bands you end up seeing here are the annual pass exclusive bands because they literally gave those away with any purchase after like a year of trying desperately to sell them at full price.

I can see exactly how it happened. They had some great app designers come in and figure out how much an epic app-based experience would cost. It would be some huge number, but totally within Disney's budget. Park construction takes longer than app dev, so they have the time too. But then corporate finance comes in and keeps changing and ruining things. It becomes more expensive, but Disney has money so it's ok. But they don't realize it doesn't just cost money, it costs time. So they are a few weeks out from the park opening and they have to cut everything and cobble together something stupid in a short time to avoid delaying the park. They'll fix it later (they never do) or make it up with marketing & sales teams (shockingly effective, but not enough in this case).

Finally they decided to kill the whole project and start over. Will they learn for the next one?
We already have the answer to this. Because the next time they did something like this it was a physical land. With avengers campus they had the whole land concept. But they wanted money now so rather than fully launch they decided they could just open shops, food, and a quickly cobbled together budget attraction and then drop in the good attraction later.

But with the land already open, they have the increased physical park capacity, they have all the things in place that generate revenue. So with no incentive to build an attraction from a financial standpoint they just dont.

I only played the original first two games. Do the other games have crappy underwater/flying combat? I'd like to get around to playing the rest but I won't bother if there's another Ursula type fight.
Honestly the underwater combat wasn't bad.

It was Ursula in particular that was bad.

But really the KH1 boss design wasn't great in general.

They really need to fix these and just put all of the full games on them instead of poorly constructed cutscenes.

Minus the mobile games which considering plot(yes i know shut up) they really should just remake into games to make sense.

It is unlikely timmy handles much of gfaqs. He handles fandom in a broader sense and fandom is fucking huge.

I doubt hes clicked back in for awhile.

Curious if he was just given the GameFAQS position without any choice, or if he volunteered for it. He's done a terrible job either way, but the former is slightly more forgivable in terms of the lack of a fuck he gives.
I'm taking a good guess that it was without choice. Fandom is run incredibly barebones.

Their frontfacing people are a meager group of "community" managers of which we've seen a decent chunk actually appear on gfaqs.

Considering nearly every piece of garbage you can think of has a fandom wiki the actual amount of people they seem to staff is incredibly small.

Cant stress enough that their actual job is just making sure no one gives a fuck and that people continue to work for free. So yeah. Not surprising he gives no fucks.

It sucks because a lot of Starcruiser features were supposed to be baseline to Galaxy's Edge but got cut and thrown into the Starcruiser.

Now they are lost entirely.
