Would you prefer to have the boss character's power lowered, and take a chance on it being too low. Or would you rather it be like Trilogy, and keep it really high?

Wasn't there a topic created just like this an hour ago?

I personally would love an extremely difficult boss; it makes the game that much more challenging and fun!

I'm not really set one way or the other, I mean they're the boss characters so they're naturally supposed to be a little stronger, I guess as long as they're not overpowering then it'll be okay.

I want them to be balanced, or else all n00bs on the internet will pick Kintaro in online play.

I think they should do about 10% more damage than everyone else. They'll still be powerful, but not too powerful.

Exactly


but experts could still beat the n00bs, n00bs never do breakers or combos the majority of them I've seen use just the special moves.

I agree but heard Boon say that they will be balanced lets hope so.

I think the boss characters should be balanced aswell. I will just put the difficulty on hard if I want a challenge.

The boss characters are going to be naturally stronger than other characters but some of the cons to them are no air combos and stuff like that.

Is that confirmed? Or just the prefered general assumption?

I think it's in an interview on Gamespot, I could be wrong, correct me if I am.
