    On top of everything already mentioned:
    • Almost any half-decent RPG game system you care to remember: Baldur's Gate 1/2 + exp. packs, Fallout 1, 2, 3, New Vegas, 4, Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines, Shadowrun returns/Dragon-Fall/Hong Kong, Star Wars: Knights of the old republic 1/2, Wastelands 2
    • Shadowen
    • No one lives forever.
    • And who can forget ... Lara Croft.

    And that's discounting MMO games or the likes of Overkill.

    The fact that she's female, or who she is, really doesnt have any impact in portal. She may as well be a red shirt.

    Alien: Isolation - fantastic shít your pants game

    The Walking Dead - one of the most emotional but not very interactive game

    Bloodrayne - slashy, slashy

    Parasite Eve

    and I presume The Last of Us 2 will be as well

    Metroid...?
    Most fighting games have some kick-ass ladies on the roster.
    One might add Dishonored 2 to the list now too.

    Isn't that the point?

    In addition to Mass Effect, Dragon Age series allows you to play as female characters.
