And how does this change that?
The intention of the original work (the LN) can still remain the same. This VR thing is made by a third party company who bought rights to make a game without the original author lending a hand.

Steins;Gate, which I see no one call waifu bait at all, had a slew of Kurisu related products with similar intentions, including one game with DLC where you buy a lingerie cat version of her.

I personally don't consider Re:Zero all that great (tbh solidly average) but I still consider it a deconstruction. Rem's just a popular character and companies are going to use her as a means to make a profit.

In unrelated news I'm shocked with Re:Zero's popularity no one has announced any home NA video rights.

Have you?
The only thing I ever and have ever heard about the show on both the Eastern and the Western side of things is how deep and psychological it is.

Well, it might still be with a bang, just with inanimate objects.
