I just want to throw in my hat on the side that says make the game you want to make.
Always ignore the pirate porn whiners. They are always always always complaining and throwing tantrums. You will never win. It's like that one Aesop's fable with the father, son and donkey, you can never please everyone and when you start listening you end up carrying the donkey on your back.
F95zone is good to kind of advertise, have your patreon linked etc. At that point only listen to your paying patrons, they should be the only people with any access to you, if even that. Most times the paying patrons are the most reasonable but there are always exceptions there too. At the end of the day it's all about you, your mental health, your enjoyment. Everything else is secondary. This is a niche hobby and if you hate doing it you'll just drop it anyway, so why bother trying to cater to a bunch of whiny pervert pirates that won't give you a dime anyway nor treat you with respect?
