I think the market for the content is massively underestimated because it's not personally their cup of tea ((Projection Bias)I see evidence of heavy interest in the fetish and other darker ones on other parts of the internet and through just how many people have made threads in game recommendations searching for this type of content) that being said it will never be mainstream. The guro/snuff content fits into matrix of fetishes in the darkest section.
It's easy to say it's too fringe to be worthwhile making a game focused on it but the absence of quality content for the darker niche fetishes, means that any developer stepping into that arena has an instant advantage because these areas have the largest ratio differences between market demand and existing content for all of adult gaming. The biggest problem as people have previously mentioned is Patreon and the associated paypal censorship. I'm sure there are ways to get around this as it's been done for countless other games and genres I just can't think of any off the top of my head.
