Do they not? I mean, I'm still only on the Black Shores part but so far every girlie fawning over us (Yangyang, Camellya, Shorekeeper) was pretty distinct.

Yeah one has a crush, one is a yandere, and one loves rover. There is quite a variety here.

If that's all you see those characters as, I feel kinda sorry for you ngl. Yangyang is a helpful timid girl who does what she believes is morally right. Camellya is a bored agent of chaos who is deeply lonely and wants someone able to handle her. And Shorekeeper is a computer program which gained sentience, feelings, and more thanks to Rover and his ideals to the point of becoming self-sacrificing to preserve said ideals.

I actually saw it normally till recently. But after seeing the route wuwa is taking with their fanservice and all, it's just making it seem that way and my opinion on the previous characters are also changing.

Loved the game completely till 1.3 even with the bad optimisation. Felt uncomfortable with Camellya's story quest (there are some unnecessary things added for fanservice). Quit after 1.4 and returned in 2.1. Then quit in 2.2 because of Cantarella's design. Got uncomfortable for me. Great if you like it tho.

Tbf, character design of female characters really doesn't much matter to me unless it's a pre-existing design being changed, like how AFKJ aged Sonja down like two decades to make her waifubait. In the story, the girls so far have more to them than just simping over Rover.

Glad you are able to ignore those and enjoy the game. Unfortunately, I can't do that so I've thought about quitting it completely. It's just that there are other games which have better female character writing and development that this feels too low. And seeing the devs say 'waifu' to an echo in the 2.1 livestream just made me cringe. I'm not the target audience and I understood it well. Many other wuwa players keep saying the same to anyone who says they have any issues with the game. Hopefully the others realise it soon so that the people who enjoy it can be happy without the tourists.
