I have no issues like that with female protagonist games because I can't imagine myself as that character. I'm playing more from the puppeteer or spectator perspective. I DO have that issue if the protagonist is male. With a male protagonist I just unconsciously imagine myself as that character. So whatever is happening to that character is happening to me. So things like the wife cheating on me or whatever really bug me. If I was playing the exact same scene except that I was controling the female character instead then it wouldn't bother me at all.
What are your thoughts on games with female protagonist?

if it's female protag only, 'one more thread for the ignore list' though there are some good ones with male or female protag options

Why you all hate feMC 
I like female protag as long as it's no "make-her-a-slut-and-fuck-with-20-bbc-at-the-same-time" standard game. Same goes if it's the LI of a male MC though.

Dev here. I like the option of a female PC, but having the option essentially doubles my work. I guess I'm a glutton for work...

I wish there was a female MC game where we could solely go round pursuing different women just like a male MC game maybe something a bit like WVM just something that's a little bit different rather than seeing the female ending up with some random dudes all the time.
I like em better than Male MC games.
Less wasting time getting to the good stuff imo.

No No. It's okay. Poor female MC. XD
Actually... you don't need to understand other
you can't role play female don't play it...
for me a guy or a girl doesn't matter
I play as the third person view...
and yes... I prefer to play a girl in action game
Because I enjoy the booty view of a girl...

Female protagonists are usually done poorly or only used for certain types of games.
Hollywood struggles to get it right, so I don't expect someone who has English as a fourth language getting paid $80 per month to make an incest game to do much better.

Dunno about hollywood, but adult games' main audience still are mostly males. So realism or plausability isn't really the main focus for female protagonist games. Maybe a shame, but the same is true for male protagonists. 99% of them are far away from realistic or better plausability and just function as a tool a vehicle for the author/developoer and nothing more.
Maybe you should try out the non-english ones. Maybe you find something there. Smaller audience, less mainstream.
ps: i think in non-adult games it's the other way around. we get more and more well made female protagonists, but seldomly well made male ones. For example Gone Home, Life is strange, Mirror's Edge,... Of course there are a lot overly tough female protagonists that could easily swapped with a male protagonist without changing anything. I can't think of one game with a plausible male protagonist right of my head. Beside that I really don't care about that too much. I prefer female protagonists that are tough and wild, hence not realistic. If they remain SOMEHOW plausible inside(!) its own game cosmos I have no problem with it. After all its a fantasy.
edit: maybe I found one plausible male protagonist. The one from Firewatch.

Oh boy. Now it will be done poorly, because like you said the audience is mostly male, and now in a language I can't understand. Thanks for the advice
