The only game that has a female protagonist that I have beaten in the Tomb Raider reboot. Every other game I have tried, I lost interest half way through. This includes, but not limited to, Dino Crisis 2, Resident Evil 3, Final Fantasy X-2, Bayonetta 1/2, and Gravity Rush.
Hell I still have Rise of the Tomb Raider in wrapped in plastic because I have no desire to play it. I cannot immerse myself in a game that has a female lead, and therefore takes away from the experience for me. I have tried, does not work.
Nothing against the vision of the developer, but I have no desire to play these games no matter how good they are because I already know that I cannot enjoy myself playing as a female lead. Nothing wrong with these games, but I will not blow my money to support them when I already know I will not be able to enjoy it as much as I should.

But that doesn't make sense, because I assume that you interact with women every day. So they should be at least more relateable than somehow being able to imagine being a robot/alien/in a fantasy setting.

That does not matter, because it does not have to make sense to you. Same goes for how it does not have to make sense to me why a male would want to immerse himself in a game that portrays him as a female. All personal preference.
I am a male and therefore I can only become immersed in a game that I play as a male. Race, ethnicity, etc does not matter to me, but gender does. I have my preferences, it really is that simple.
