Well fanservice is a guilty pleasure among many. There's even fanservice made for females, but it's sadly rare and I think it's unfair. There should be more sexy males for the female audience too!
I also believe in the realm of fantasy, every character is an object because they are not real people. Video games don't have to be realistic or depict realistic characters. They can can just have characters designed to fulfill a simple purpose.
When I play MadWorld and told to murder the other people in the goriest fashion, they do not design the characters realistically. They are depicted as cartoonishly stupid goons that are fun to rip a part. That goon is an object for my gory entertainment.
The problem is, too many female characters fulfill the same purpose.
