I like new stuff.
I wouldn't mind so much if the old characters got more or larger changes but Bob is just the same old Bob, Lili or Master Raven have three new moves, everyone just plays largely the same. I mean, sure it's comforting to pick up your old character and play decently with like 5 mins of adjustment time. And they're obviously choosing to make T7 a game where legacy skills are extremely relevant. That's fine.
But if it's going to be like that, i want a ton of new characters. 11-15 or so in a roster this size, not counting clones. I'm a BIG fan of the clones, but i can't call them entirely new. (So basically the new-old ratio KoF14 has. I think that game has a great roster. ) So when folks ask "So what's new for T7?" one can say "Well there's these FIFTEEN new characters!" instead of mumbling about getting screw instead of bound.
And i like the new characters they do have a lot. Kazumi is great, Shaheen is great, Katarina is pretty great. Lucky Chloe, Gigas and Akuma at least have pretty interesting playstyles.
(Also i guess in general, once T7 comes out we'll have seen two years of Shaheen or whoever footage. That doesn't really feel like a new character anymore. So do some more for console. )
Edit: yes, i know realistically the most i can hope for is maybe 1 more new character.
