No but designing a game around the (near perfect) body of woman comes pretty close. But I don't care about that since I enjoy the view nonetheless. But on a political level I can see why people call the game sexist since it objectifies women purely as lust objects like porn does.

 

As for OP I enjoy sexist media and non sexist media since sexism in media doesn't bother me. Why  you ask, because it is fiction and fantasy. Besides it's not like men and women where considered equal in the dark ages in which era Zelda takes place to begin with. So damsel in distress scenario is pretty accurate for that time.

Sexism or gender discrimination is prejudice or discrimination based on a person's sex or gender.

Where is the predjudice and discrimination when making a video game with sexy women? Are women who dress sexy also sexists because they objectify women? Are women who are helpless in real life and are asking a man to help them sexist?

People really need to learn the difference between depicting something and intending something.

Well, my definition also includes "underestimates or disrespects people because of their sex". So yes, Dead or Alive is sexist as fuck, because it makes women look like items. When they are far more than that.
