A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

No One Lives Forever (and 2)

It's also rare to have a female protagonist in an FPS.

Super Hang-On had a female protagonist but you only found out if you beat the hardest arcade mode

Cult: Heretic Kingdoms

Fantastic RPG game, with a badass female protagonist.

Wet is a fun game if you can handle the loading screens.

Eien no Filena on the SNES/SFC (it was Japan-only but it's been fan-translated).

Not only is the protagonist a woman - that fact is repeatedly plot-relevant.

Erica

The Syberia Series

The Longest Journey

Gone Home

Virginia

What remains of Edith Finch

Beyond Good and Evil

Gabriel Knight 3 has shared protagonists that you switch between; one is a woman.

Likewise some of the Broken Sword series

Talos Principle is either non-gendered or whatever you want the protagonist to be.

The first Blair Witch game from 2000

Everyone's gone to the Rapture

Also, holla at whoever said "No One Lives Forever"; that game rules.

Final Fantasy 6. There are technically several protagonists, but the one with the better claim to "main protagonist" is a woman.

Also, Heaven's Vault isn't an old game, but it's not very well known or talked about, so I'll throw it in anyway.
