Except it really doesn't. No more than any of the games you listed. We know we are going to the greatwood and that's it. Other games have gone to Viera woods and villages and never encountered a male Viera and neither could we if our story takes us there. There could easily be something more pressing that has occupied the male viera elsewhere that we'd never see. There's tons of story hooks they could use to justify us not seeing any despite being in their home. Just because you wouldn't like the result of how it might be written because you're personally invested in male viera doesn't mean it's crap writing lol.
