Here's what producer of the game himself said on steam about that blant black racism and cultural appropriation of white, greek culture.
"As stated in other contexts, the Greek gods ruled over the entire world, not just ancient Greece. They are called the Greek gods because the Greeks worshipped them, not because they were ethnically Greek.

As a lifelong student of Greek myth and the game's writer, my foremost goal in my own work was to honor the source material that has inspired me for so long."
