    I just finished Control and it’s really good! Jesse is a strong female lead and there’s no male option like some games.

      For anyone unaware, Control feels like a triple-A SCP game. Which should appeal strongly to anyone who enjoys SCP.

        I would third control. I picked it up from the Humble female protagonist bundle and it was fantastic, loved everything about it.
        Once you unlock all the powers the combat and exploration really open up, and the game still has a significant bit of story left giving you time to have some fun with them.

        Also loved the environmental lore, all the notes and the vids with Dr. Darling are great. Highly recommend the game.

          Amazing game, definitely one of my all-time favorites and the most fun I’ve had with a combat system. The atmosphere of the game is fantastic as well, pulling so much tension out of every new supernatural office space you discover. I’m absolutely thrilled they confirmed a Control 2 recently, I can’t wait to get back into that world with all its lore to discover. I feel like I need to play Alan Wake now too since they’re connected.

            Alan Wake is pretty interesting from a female perspective, because it’s a male hero but it’s good a pretty good female supporting character in the Sheriff and the plot with Alice is really interesting in light of the idea of fridging. Also, the sequel will have a second playable protagonist that’s a woman.
