Hate to say it but would probably have more subscribers if the MC was white

It's more about the title. No one expects a college story with MMA elements in a game called 'Alpha Omega'!
This game has great potential, graphical surroundings and the gui suits the game.
The beginning of the story with the introducing of the characters and the variety of events that occur on campus contains funny and serious aspects, like participating in a rock band, sport activities (train different fighting skills), mixing cocktails, the eye event and different background stories around the fellow students.

If that's truly the reason that people don't want to support a project, then those are better off spending money on seeking professional help, rather than playing these games. I get quite a few of these disgraceful comments, and it sickens me to my stomach to even suggest that somehow a white male would be superior and make me more money. This is bullshit that needs to stop. A human is a human, as simple as that. Imagine me as the developer, not being white, and how that makes me feel, to be regarded as some second rate human being?
Not being able to identify with somebody because they have a different skintone other than white, despite them maybe having the same interests or personality traits as yourself, is just another form of racism. And if you don't realize that, there's no hope for you. You're basically boxing anyone else that isn't white, into a second rate place... white supremacy they call that.
Imagine if you were a white man in a dark room, you meet another person and you get on well. Discover you can laugh together, share the same interests, have a lot in common and genuinely feel like this could be your friend. Now the lights suddenly turn on and to your great surprise, the man you were talking to is of a different skintone than yours. Do your feelings change because of that? If they do, I don't know what to say... and neither do I wish to talk with you.
I apologize for the rant and it's not directed at yourself, but I'm very tired of this disgusting thought process in general. Unfortunately, It will be ignored and people will just carry on being like that, and nothing will ever change, because they're happy in their fantasy world like that and don't think there's anything wrong with it... it breaks my heart and I sincerily hope this isn't the main reason for the lack of support.
If you want this kind of bullshit to disappear and you enjoy this project, consider supporting.

If I could support monetarily, I would. Not possible tho.
And I would for 2 main reasons. First a non-white MC. While I am white, I was also privileged to be born in Africa. Second, a tall muscled woman that isn't a pseudo-male in disguise. You were able to create really attractive women, that act and move and behave like women, no matter their size or fit state. I am completely bored of the muscled women trope that is the standard in this VN world, turning them into masculine caricatures.

Calling people racist because they dont want to play as a black person in a porn game is crazy NGL. I guess everyone that has dating prefrences IRL is racist too. At least then you could make the argument its not a video game, but here? The simple matter of the fact is that theres plenty of games that have those players same skin color, that there is simply no reason for those people to play this one. Self insertion is very much a thing in these games for many people, and simply put other developers offer a better experince for most people playing these game.
If you don't want to cater to that crowd its fine. You want to see more representation, cool! But to go and villainize all the people that dont want to play because of it? Thats not it. God, I wonder what you think of people that play Jobeo games, they must literally be satan

Hmmm, so if someone is saying their "dating preference" is based on skin color, that's not a racist prejudice? Completely ignoring the other features that might be attractive to them, dismissing him/her because of the skintone? Sounds like a bit of a problem to me... again, we are all humans, and that's that. You find a person attractive, or you don't. Self insertion has the same issue, exactly like I already mentioned. Not being able to identify with a another human being because of their skintone is simply not right. You identify with a human, not their skintone... I don't know how else to put it. If you don't see that as a quality of being a decent human being, then I don't know. But somehow I'm the crazy one... fine...
I don't really want to keep talking about this weird segregation nonsense, but do you ever see anyone that's not white complaining about every other game on here? How it's impossible for them identify with all the white males? I haven't... sure, there might be someone thinking this, and I'm not denying it's not that way neither... it's equally as silly, yet doesnt seem to be an issue.

This whole moral highground spiel is, yes, in fact crazy. The fact that you are using it as some sort of "If you dont agree then support me now" is even worse. And you thinking that how people want to play their fantasies is this somehow indicative of how they are IRL is BS. I hate to break it to you, if you actually think that way, you think most of the people in the world are racist or worse. If anything this has only said more about you then anyone else. If you unironically feel this way you should not be making these games. Fullstop. Otherwise it might comeback and bit you one day once you realize how many horrible people in your eyes have probably played your gameHmmm, so if someone is saying their "dating preference" is based on skin color, that's not a racist prejudice?

You're right, if the majority of this community feels like that and heavily disagrees with how I feel about what I think shouldn't be an issue in the first place, then I don't belong here and will eventually take my leave.
Acting like a game that has an MC with a dark skin model doesn't immediately generate more vitriol than games without one is disingenuous, at best. There has always been immediate pushback usually with people declaring they'd play the game if the character was white, usually even more so than when people say the same things about a male vs female MC.
I mean, go ahead and check. There's only about 10 games with a black or dark skinned MC out of the thousands on this site.

Yes, I hate to break it you, a majority of the people arent going to feel like they are racist because they perfer a black/white/asian protag. They arent going to feel sexist because they perfer a female/male/trans protagonist. And they wont feel whatever X word you think they should for liking X. Stop fighting the boogeymen, it isn't good for your mental.

So, self-insertion is only OK when it fits your argument?
When someone self-inserts as being white and NOT wanting to play a game where the MC is NOT white, for you is not a problem, because self-insertion fits your narrative.
But, if the maker of the game chooses to make a game with a non-white because he is also non-white and he knows and feels a lack of representation, then self-insertion is a problem, because he's forcing players to do something they don't want.
I assume you'll not be able to see the hypocrisy here. Yet, people feel entitled to come up with ways to justify their prejudices.

This is true unfortunately. I remember The Author having dingbats saying that about it.

With what part? I stand 100% by everything I have said. Especially considering the post quote quite literally called me out for not saying something I literally said. Like I get you dont want to the dev to quit after his manipulative "Ill quit unless people agree with me" but cmon.
Oh, I read. It's just the same tired bull you see everywhere. People say the same stuff whether it's in sex games, non-sex games, movies, etc. that they somehow are unable to enjoy something unless the characters look like them and presenting other characters is somehow "forcing" it onto them.

I literally play Black MC games. One of the first games I played on this site was Starship Inanna. And I literally NEVER said he couldnt choose to have a black MC. I have historically encouraged black MC games, literally. My issue Is him saying that everyone who skips his game because of it is racist. I guess all the black people thathave probably specifically searched for black MC's are racist too. You guys are bonkers, and ironically "seem to not be able to understand that there can be more than one way to think."Sorry, I read you. You seem to not be able to understand that there can be more than one way to think.
You, has a game creator, have the right and might to make your game however you see fit.
So does he.
And, he is also perfectly correct in defending his choice of a non-white MC. It is only a problem for people with a melanin aversion, like you. I couldn't care less what the MC skin color is, I am role playing. There is indeed extra value in being different.
Not for you. OK. What else do you expect anyone to tell you?
Conformity is fine and dandy, until it isn't, in this case, it isn't. If a player is unable to get over the fact that a MC in a fight game is of a specific skin color, but is able to self-insert as a young kid with a dick that reaches his knees, the problem obviously isn't the game but the player.
You not being able to accept it, is what's wrong. Sorry.

Whether or not you stand by what you said doesn't mean others can't disagree with you, you understand that, don't you?
