Neverwinter Nights 2. Even vanilla can provide many alternatives. From basic casters, to druid, to warlock
There should be suitable mod from kaedrin and other modders as well.

If you're including BG1 and BG2, then PFK fits the definition too.

Shin Megami Tensei, though you can only play as a summoner and your summons take place of regular party members.
Elminage Original and Elminage Gothic have a Summoner class, which can capture and summon monsters that work as a 7th party member. In Gothic they can take an ability which lets them convert summons into full-fledged adventurers and fill your party with those.
And if you’re feeling brave, there’s always Wizardry IV.

Not quite an RPG but an RPG/RTS hybrid, but Magic&Mayhem is all about summons.
Geneforge, when playing as a shaper. And speaking of Vogel, starting from Avernum 2 there's a spell that allows to store souls of creatures you've fought and summon them later.
Shadowrun games basically have two versions - the classic summoner (Shaman) and its technological counterpart (Rigger). The summoning system itself is also fairly interesting since you can either use consumable summoning fetishes or summon spirits from sources in the environment.
On the older and more obscure front, The Summoner - as the title suggests. You are limited to one summon at a time, but those can be quite game-changing.

In Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup you can play as a full-time summoner/necromancer. Also, you can start as Hill Orc, become Beogh worshipper and lead your own army of orcs into the depths.

In Elona you can summon not only monsters but literal gods but not in the Final Fantasy way, you summon your literal god you worship in their incarnate form to follow you around and destroy everything lol

Enderal, I don't like the combat in the game so I played the game as a summoner.
You not only summon constructs to fight for you, but you can summon weapons too. I used a conjured bow to help my elemental dude fight.

Why would you wanna play if you don't wanna do anything?

- Geneforge 1 - A game ALL about magical created life
- Diablo 2 - Necromancers can be offensive dark magicians or summoners
- NWN2 - WITH SPELL FIXES summon spells and many others are trash without that mod
- Pathfinder Kingmaker
- Pathfinder Wrath of The righteous - You can even become a freaking Lich in that game
- Mount & Blade + Phantasy Calradia
- Mount & Blade + LEgacy of the Dragon
- Mount & Blade + Chronicles of might & magic
- NWN1 + PRC
- Gothic 2 + RETURNING as a necromancer aka Xardas apprentice.
- VtMB + Antitribu as a Giovanni
- Arcanum - Not so great in "quantity" department, but you can build a steampunk army(tech) or summon a lot of creatures(magick)

Dark Sun. Pick Cleric. Fire Doman. Summon Fire Elemental. Now watch as your elemental destroys *everything* in its "Wake"! Bwaha.

Worse, SC's summon is more like attack in the form of summons than actual living being with AI. Kinda like PST with Mechanus Cannon, or FF8's GF summon.
