I'm currently playing Injustice 2 for the first time, having a good time with the game. But good grief, Harley's voice in this game is very grating. It's so high pitched, it sometimes sounds like she's on helium. It's not cute or bubbly, it's just annoying.

Tara Strong of course is one of the biggest VA's in the business, and rightfully so. Hell, when it comes to DC characters, she's probably the best voice of Batgirl and her voice of Raven from Teen Titans is super distinct. But her Harley is ass, and it sucks that she's become the go to voice for her. She was okay in Arkham City, but since then... no bueno. She sounds dreadful in the Suicide Squad trailer too.
If you know your DC history, Harley Quinn was originally created on Batman the Animated Series, and Arleen Sorkin who voiced her was also the inspiration for the character (aspects of her personality were interjected into the character).
I'm not asking for Sorkin to come back, pretty sure she's retired. But there's so many other VA's who can and have voiced the character better. There's Hynden Walch who technically voiced the character in the "Arkhamverse" in Batman Assault on Arkham. She channels the original while doing her own thing without being irritating.

There's also Kaley Cuoco doing her own take in the Harley Quinn show, and she's great.
I haven't played the game, but I've seen some clips and who ever voiced Harley on Gotham Knights did a good job, likewise with Laura Post in the telltale games.
