My issue is as others have graciously stepped in to point out; when a token bbc character appears, writers will often skip any semblance of flirting, sensuality, foreplay, whatever you want to call it, the proverbial dance that men and women do to attract each other all in the name of "he's black and has a big dick therefore the woman must be enthralled."
Darius from MWAS is a particularly egregious example because outside the bbc fetish, the character has no inherently desireable traits. In terms of appearance, despite the story telling us he's "moderately attractive", this is what we see:

This is not an attractive individual. None of his dialogue is remotely charming or seductive, and the reason women are attracted to him relies heavily on the preexisting bbc fetish of the player. It doesn't help my opinion that the dev insists on making him darker than midnight paired with low scene lighting so half the time you can't even see his facial expressions:

Is Darius happy there? Sad? Confident? Depressed? Eager? Apprehensive? Who knows! With the bbc fetish none of that matters, all that matters is he's black, hung, and present.
This is not to say there aren't attractive black people by any stretch. Off the top of my head, in their prime both Carl Weathers and Wesley Snipes LOOK like movie stars.

It's not even a Daz problem because attractive black Daz models DO exist.

Meanwhile, bbc enthusiast devs insist on using the most ugly, overdrawn, and stereotypical models like Daniel in a Couple's Duet.

Notice, his texture map has his resting eyebrows in a low-inner high-outer position. This is by design. This is someone's choice, to make him always look as aggressive, angry, and sneering as possible.
Now, people can like what they like when it comes to sex and porn, but don't call me the racist one when there's a non-insignicant portion of devs and players that deliberately play up extreme stereotypes. As others have said, if anything games need MORE black people in non-stereotypical roles, I enjoyed the presence of Jake in "Rise of the Crime Lord" because he acts like your friend and not a walking stereotype.
The real "war" I'm fighting isn't against black characters in games, but a lack of sensuality and other writing elements mentioned in my lede to make games sexually exciting. Any idiot with a nvidia card can throw some characters in a scene, apply some poses, and smash render. What makes it hot is the buildup, the tension, all these regular elements of human sexuality and storytelling. Yet, bbc fetish games are consistently one realm where this goes out the window and half the players don't seem to care. Admittedly, it's not the only fetish that does this. I scorn lazy writing/storytelling in all genres of games, the bbc one just happens to be an easy tell for "this game likely has lazy writing".
Yup, I even remember us disagreeing on the black antagonist "Frank" in Horton Bay; he still had pieces of the "bbc stereotype, but at least his scenes involved some flirting build up and resistance from Gemma so to me it felt more realistic and more sensual.
The names also make me cringe, it's like a list of "black names" that a suburban white kid came up with on the spot.
By chance of city school districts, I went to a middle school where as a white kid I was in the minority. The average classroom of 20 kids probably had around 12 black kids, a few asian kids, a few hispanics, and 2-3 white kids. I've never met a "Tyrone" in my life. I've known an "Octavius", a "Deshaun", a "William", and a "David", but never a Tyrone or a Darrell. Not to say they don't exist, but again, this sounds more like some insular white kid's creation.
