It's pretty hypocritical to decide that a game is awful because it's encouraging vanity. Vanity being primarily a female fault in this case, because the game is marketed to girls.

What's wrong with fantasizing about it? Frankly, it's better than fantasizing about an otome game like Amnesia, where young girls are taught that they should accept mental and physical abuse from a guy they don't know because "he loves her".

Yet, no one complains about that. Or at least, the people that complain are in the clear minority.
