I will try this game for sure since she is in it. I don’t tend to like “team” fighting games since I will have to choose 2+ mains rather than just one (obviously Wonder Woman would be my one). I also have a dim view of “free-to-play” games since in reality they are usually free-to-start, pay-for-the-full-experience.
I have been bingeing this youtube channel called batinthesun that has live action battles between comic characters. This one is by far my favorite: Wonder Woman versus Wolverine.
Basically, they start by interviewing people at a comic con as to who would win the fight, then the voting tally determines the outcome. In this case, it was so close that they filmed an alternate ending so that there is a video where each character wins.
