Soul calibur III didn't have gimmick characters. Did you hate that one as well?

I didn't really HATE any of them till IV. III was okay. It was really just a port of 2 though with new non-gimmick characters. The reason I hate IV isn't that it has the gimmicks, but that the gimmicks got in the way of making a successful and competitive fighting game.

It's very likely going to be successful (saleswise, I don't know if that's what you meant). And there is nothing stoping it from being a competitive fighting game. Every competitive fighting game league has rules, the exclusion of characters can be in those rules. If you have a problem with the fighting system that's another story, one not easily fixed by rules (but not unfixable. example, some smash bros leagues don't allow edge hogging).

But the lack of balance doesn't just affect tourneys, it also almost voids the usefulness of one of the game's main modes: online play. You can still play with friends if you limit the characters you use, but random matches will be almost all Yoda and the only way to be competitive will be Yoda. The highest ranked player will always be Yoda. etc...

Trust me. Nobody wants to play with Yoda. I think he is the weakest of all characters.
