There is a huge misogyny problem or really cluster of problems, but most FG communities (Smash included) are very multiracial. There's also obviously a bit of an orientalism issue towards East Asia (varying types based on the country), but overwhelmingly the biggest issue is getting the community away from weird channer types like you see on r / kappa who are terminally pornbrained and think that a female character wearing a skintight one-piece is the woke mob assailing their combat bikinis.

I've had Desolate Hope on the backlog for a long time because it looked neat but has the shadow of "Oh, it's by the FNAF guy" hanging over it, as you mention. I'll bump it up the list, given your praise of it.
You can do it! Unity tends to have comically extensive tutorials that you can lean really heavily on if you need to, and there's no shame in doing so. Based on what you said, your goal is along the lines of making something in your head real, not being a Big Deal Ingenuitive Game Coder(tm), so do what works the best for you reaching your goal as you define it. I look forward to whatever you may have to share 
Don't forget the neat little communist RPG that comrade @Goadstool@hexbear.net made, which is called Kor

That's cool! There's a youtube channel called Dungeon Chill that does a decent amount of coverage of indie takes on those grid-based dungeon crawlers. I know of him most via his coverage of Disillusion, which is an interesting such game (very "moody", as you put it), though I think it has a lot of wasted potential in its design and he overrates it a bit.
I love weird little turn-based RPGs, am an amateur musician, and have a bit of experience with helping devs with QA stuff, so I'd be happy to help you if you like. I think there are plugins in RPG maker for example that would let you do something like an early SMT (example), though there are surely also tutorials on how to make the same in Unity and such. If you can rein in scope creep, your goal seems very viable.
Before seeing the context elsewhere in the thread, I thought we were talking "Void Rains Upon Her Heart" levels of pedo, but holy shit this is so far beyond that. I don't really follow anime-ish ero games because nothing about it would appeal to me, but my impression from what Steam occassionally tosses up as punishment for me ever playing an anime-ish game of any kind (mostly fighting games), it's my inclination to guess that it's mainly the antisemitism that is causing this to come "under review". Graphic SV and pedophilia seem to be alarmingly tolerated on these platforms, but blatant Nazi shit sometimes isn't.
Seeing things like this makes me feel like I should be making games. If some vile puke like this guy can do it, why can't I?
What kind of game would you want to make? Some genres have very accessible engines (RPGs notoriously so, as in this game), others not as much

I didn't say shit about the CIA, it was all conventionally-domestic bodies afaik, like the FBI and Congressional committees. Apparently also:
"If it were not for me", Hoover told a State Department official in 1963, "there would not be a Communist Party of the United States. Because I've financed the Communist Party, in order to know what they are doing"
By central body, I essentially mean everything "National" in their org chart.
Absolute cowardice, typical of tankies such as yourself
I get the impression of the game reflecting them being fucked up edgelords along with the actual fash propaganda like the Happy Merchant, but that the sadistic porn elements don't serve an ideological purpose beyond perhaps getting the game banned so they can make controversy around it based on things like the flag (as they ended up actually doing). Maybe not, I don't know. If they had an ideological reason to want to promote sexual violence, etc, there are other ways of doing it (see any anime ero game's representation of consent) that I think would be more effective in bending some weeb's attitude and encouraging wild misogyny. I don't really know though, just my opinion.
