Using the list is fine, I specifically mean people who can't stop mentioning that this is really the entry bar a book has to cross to be up to their standards as often as they can. Meet several people like that.

There are a whole lot of people for whom reading such literature is primarily a status symbol. Most readers of these books are not, of course, but I met too many of them to discount them as a significant faction. A telltale sign seems to be constant mentioning of Man Booker awards for some reason.

Und dafür nur angenommen das die Stadtbild-Aussage ein Versehen war, was ich von keinem hochrangigen Politiker glauben würde. Gerade weil man nicht diese Posten erreicht ohne sich der Wichtigkeit der Kommunikation bewusst zu sein. Das ist ein Testballon.

Lustig. Eine Kernkompetenz von Politikern ist klar, unmissverständliche Kommunikation. Alle anderen Probleme mit seinen Aussagen hier mal beiseite gelassen erwartet er also wohlwollendes Verständnis seiten aller Bürger wenn der Kanzler das nicht kann?

Ja, ich wundere mich auch schon geraume Zeit wie er seine Arroganz füttert. Alleine seine Bilanz in seinen Auseinandersetzungen mit Merkel ist ja eher nicht so berauschend.

Für mich sieht es schon länger aus als sähe Merz die AFD als näher zu seiner Weltsicht als andere Parteien, und er bildet sich ein sie als seinen Juniorpartner bändigen zu können. Geschichtsvergessenheit pur.

And, as always with media that is at least nominally aimes at children there is likely an element of "it is good for kids, and they do not care anyway."

That, and maybe some personal relationship influence?
Some might have known Rowling for a while, or someone else involved & important for the project, and the math changes to "yes, that horrible person is involved, but my good friend(s) want me on board, so..."

And the high blood pressure gives them their far-above-average physical prowess? Do you mean the movie Wanted actually showed a weird high level D&D campaign?

And that means the potential loss (since there are no guarantees!) is a lot bigger than the potential additional profit. YMMV, of course, but it is a valid view.

Entirely possible. But would you bet millions on it? No matter how you look at it, it is a gamble. And they would gamble that money to win what? Tens of thousands? Looking at it purely through a business lens, the money Daggerheart might make ideally is a lot less than CR makes right now.

I would expect that they will run a miniseries with Daggerheart from time to time, though. Or maybe use the time freed up by the larger cast/new GM/multiple groups in the long run to start something new and bigger for the game.

Mostly I agree, but I can also see that the show makes them a lot more money than they are likely to ever get from the system. So, keeping it as the functioning core (and given the likely large D&D-only section of the fandom) I can see why did this.

Yes, agreed. And there would be a lot of people in power who would call on everyone to seriously consider the proposal.
