Now this one I love.

'The Fucking Start Button' bit actually made me cry with laughter. :') Good Job

I'm surprised I'm the only one who complains about the combat but it honestly felt like a series of glorified quick time events. For instance, mash the two combat buttons until one of the baddies has a magical "i'm about to blind side you" notification blinking over his head, then push the appropriate counter button, repeat. Am I the only person who thought that kind of combat was a bit shallow?

I recommend you play it on hard, you have to watch the movements of each enemy on screen. It's DEFINITELY more challenging

That's for sure.

My major complaint, aside from the silly over-sexualization of Harley Quinn, is the slow response of the controls.

Punches, kicks and dodges that come around a precious fraction of a second too late are too common in this game, at least in the pc version. Also, the fact that you cannot cancel a knockdown move, specially one of those big thugs are charging towards you. Really stupid design.
