Because that's the Basis of a huge number of tripple A games selling millions of copies.
Yep. And there are movies that are violent. And novels. And... so what?
"All the other kids are doing it!" does not seem like a major statement in its favor.

No non-absurd definition of ‘challenge’ would include a combatant killing a non-combatant as a ‘challenge’. A challenge is ‘testing the abilities of something’. In no way does an armed pc killing an unarmed shopkeeper ’Test their abilities’, unless you are meaning ‘test their ability to be a douchebag’.
I don't disagree with your point, but I do think that videogames are a fairer comparison to TRPGs than novels or movies.
But in summary the game was quite murderhobo
Fine. The point stands that there's a whole lot of violence in our entertainments, in general. The argument, "There's a whole lot of violence in our entertainment," is not itself an argument to have violence in your entertainment.
It is like... hm, my swimming pool is full of water. Let's add another glass of water to it! It isn't supporting the need for the glass of water.

One of the highest achievements of the game was (is, actually - it is still supported) to finish it without killing anyone.
