its gonna be in erotic third person. However im faced with a dilemma. You see the MC is a guy but I orginally imagined him to be black. Not like super black but like brown-ish. But now im thinking I might have to swap the race if I want the game to have a chance because even if my game literally has nothing to DEI or whatever. I have a suspicion that the wrong crowd will complain. I mean its a guy goes through a bunch of shenanigans, fucking women but it just so happens that he's black. the design in mind was to make him like a everyman. In the same way we played an everyman in other games who just happens to be a white dude. right? no big deal. no hidden agenda. none of that nonsense.
so im wondering should I play it safe so that I can guarantee sales at the expense of diverting from the initial idea or should I go forth all the way and ignore the pushback? what are the chances the game gets called "woke"? lol

Write him as a white-passing black with an internal struggle about his racial identity. It's not woke because while he be grappling with with his identity, he be grabbing pussies.

wouldnt that fall under "woke" esp with the "racial internal struggle"? Highly doubt anybody would wanna play a game where the protagonist is whining about his identity.
