CD Projekt Red logo is in top of a Novigrad house

Hi,
I noticed that in the VGX trailer, there is the bird of the CD Projekt Red logo in top of a house in Novigrad . Does anyone know what could it mean?
If there is already theard of this than sorry. (Sorry for the grammar mistakes)

Yeah, that was noticed quite a long time ago. As to what it means... CD Projekt Red is what it means. It just a visual gag based on the classic rooster weathervane:

It's an easter egg.

I don't know if you are familiar with this, but in medieval Europe the highest buildings (usually the churches)
had a "weather rooster" on them.

It shows the direction of the wind by turning with it. You'll still see it on top of most churches in Europe.

CDPR played a gag and placed their bird instead of a rooster on this building.

You can stop laughing now, I changed 'cock' to 'rooster'.
Then again who knows what you put on your roofs in Greece....

Right! I was gonna say, Rooster is a much "better" word. Or cockerel. :p

Not sure what "we" used to do in the past, but I've seen little paper windmills, or metal "planes" on a stick. And not on the roof. Just in the yard I guess. :p

The last time I was in Greece I also saw a lot of water tanks on the flat roofs, which is pretty clever.
They heat in the sun and they have warm water to shower with~

I don't know why you couldn't figure out that the water tanks in the roof are only to give pressure to the water coming out of the faucet which is necessary to the houses that are off the water supply grid..

But I know what you where trying to imply and my answer is this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0SwGmdcSwdY
