This is the one, playing through 1 for the second time right now and it’s just so good. It’s my first time as female Shepard and I think I like her more than male Shepard!
Gotta love anything with Jennifer Hale. My male Sheps are always more physical, like Soldier, and my female Sheps are always more biotic. Tho, no matter how hard i try, I’m almost never very renegade-y.
In my headcanon, DOOM 2016’s player character was a genderless force of anger incarnate. No boobs, but power fantasy for sure.
In that vein, if you wanted indie games, you could look for any recent boomer shooter like Viscerafest (yes girl), Ion Fury (yes girl), or Selaco (yes girl). Searching for the “boomer shooter” tag on Steam seems to yield a lot of female protagonist power fantasy games
The only boomer shooter I’ve played lately is Prodeus which doesn’t have a female protagonist but can definitely exemplify the strengths of the boomer shooter subgenre
Fate- monstrous
And empty.

Burning inside with
Violent anger.

Working my way through act 2 of Baldur’s Gate 3. I feel like I’ve done just about everything in the Temple of Shar except the ::: spoiler spoiler fight against Balthazar. :::I tried it a couple times but got whooped a little too easily. Shadowheart is a beast though. She’s usually the last one alive when I try it. She can take out all the mobs by herself. It’s gonna take the whole squad to win the fight. I need to get my party up a level or two. Me being a defenseless bard is pretty tough. In all my attempts I’ve been sniped turn one with little recourse to get revived.
Then on top of that I’ve put time in AI Wars 2 and fighting games. AI Wars 2 is so cool. Complete information overload and a wonky UI but it’s got the addicting qualities I like in video games.
Tekken has been calling me as like a stress reliever. Then the Marvel announcement yesterday made me fire up Strive and SF6. I might put real effort into Strive this time. I’ve always wanted to but it’s never quite clicked like SF, and Tekken. And yes I installed DBFZ out of sheer joy yesterday. That rollback better be good.
I’m not sure if Rollerdrome might be your thing, but I enjoyed it. You play as a girl competing in a roller-skating death arena. It’s a bit like Tony hawk games, but combat plays a huge role, it’s very satisfying and it’s very well integrated with the rollerskating. I really enjoyed the first ten or so scenarios, but I’m not so good at score based games so I never finished it.
Why do people still play that game? I quit after black ops 2? I think. Got MW2 with my ps5 played a few times and the game is just so far from the game I loved 15-20 years ago. Why do so many people complain so hard about it and keep playing? I bought the outer worlds and assassin’s Creed Ragnarok recently for less than some call of duty skins lol. Just stop playing. I’m sorry but I don’t understand the mindset of complaining about the black eyes you get when you punch yourself.
Oh, don’t get me wrong. I actually like the game, otherwise I would be playing something else. I just dislike the way the community has dragged it into a dumb direction because of the devs actively choosing to put Shipment on every game since MW2019. Most players now literally have an aneurysm if they don’t fight someone within 5 seconds of spawning.
The original shipment was awesome because it was a change of pace of the bigger, more guided maps. Same with Nuketown. However, at some point in there, literally every map just became some minor variation of those chaotic maps. The only difference between TDM and free for all was half the time shooting someone did nothing.
The old games you could actually be able to just be good, follow a plan and clear the path. Anymore, they made the maps so chaotic that you couldn’t possibly clear your way because the second you finished checking one path, you move on to the next and get shot by some asshole coming from the place you just checked.
I played a few after that at my buddy’s house, but I had quit buying them. By the time advanced warfare came out, I wouldn’t even play it there anymore. It just ceased being fun even while drunk. Then I played MW2 because it came free with the PS5 because why not? The original was one of my favorite games of all time! I played through the campaign and that was fun, but multiplayer had somehow gotten even worse! And don’t get me started on the battle Royale bullshit. You could say that maybe I just got old, but I watched the decline in real time, in the prime of my life. Hell, even as late as ghosts, I was still averaging over a 2.6 k/d. In the MW2 remake, it was closer to 1.1! Wtf?!? And I just can’t get behind a military game that adds in goofy ass skins. I’m even kinda ok with reasonable micro transactions for cool gear. Reasonable being like $.99-$2.99 like gran Turismo. I totally respect that. But $20 for a skin?!? GTFO. And making the game a joke in the process? Ugh. See? This is why I don’t play that shit anymore. It raises my blood pressure lol.
I just stopped playing PvP games in general and I’m quickly giving up on co-op with randoms. All that shit is too toxic. FFXIV has been a bastion of good community vibes, and recently, to my surprise, Night Reign, but probably only because there isn’t voice chat.
