DMC's anime draws little from the games despite being based on a game's series so again The Witcher is not going by the games, books lend themselves to be better source material than games for tv shows and movies, the books were there long before the games and they got the license from the author so obviously they'd use them just because the games are popular doesn't mean they'll override everything.

Yes or no. Is Netflix try to capitalize on the popularity of the games?

Yes or no. Did they cast Henry to appeal to the average viewer who may not care about the game?

I think the answer to both is an emphatic yes. I'm not sure what your point is, I'm just pointing at why they made these two choices.

You're moaning about it appealing to people who don't care about the games fact is they're not going by the games it's going by the books that's the whole point the series is not trying to be The Wither games as a TV series, they're capitalizing to bring the lore of the books into motion lore that the games don't touch on.
