Alright! Beat that story, went back and wrapped up the the chapters with two optional fighters, spent a few hours in the multiverse.
Having a pretty great time here considering I've never spent more than like 3 hours with a fighting game in the past, I've been pretty scared off by them to the point that I wouldn't want to buy one, suck at it, and then bail. But I'm sticking with this one hopefully, I feel like I'm over the initial learning curve.
Spending most of my time (outside of the story) with Supergirl and Harley Quinn. I've got a decent handle on Batman and Superman, too, probably just because I spent a decent amount of time with them in the story. I ended up checking out Poision Ivy for a multiverse challenge, fuck me, she's weird. I love everything about her aesthetically, but boy is she weird to play, that one special where you're planted like a turret -- I couldn't even work out how to cancel out of it. Loved the look of Black Canary too, but most of her play seems to be about counters and such, I don't have the timing down well enough to play that sort of character,
Any characters I should be playing as a real beginner-ass-beginner to properly learn the ropes? I feel like I'm probably missing some basic ass fundamentals here, at least this time I'm using the d-pad (that's correct right? I used the stick once and I feel like that's a bit of a faux pas). Give me the most basic of tips imaginable, too. I'm to going to feel patronized.
