No option to disable gems in Street Fighter X Tekken, system designed for veterans
Why not just outsource the game to BioWare or Bethesta if they wanna make a RPG? This gem system seems like something along the lines of a RPG where you need to unlock and equip them. "I have to get new underwear for Zangief so he can tank better" "Only two more levels and I can use a mount for Rolento"

This feels unnecessary, it's like they are trying to add as many things as possible to make the game unique even if it's unique enough. Guess what? You'll be able to have both your fighters on the screen at the same time! Guess what? We're adding Pandora Mode! Guess what? We're adding gems that will make you stronger! Do we really need all of this in the same game?
