Here is what Seth had to say.

Pandora [mode] right now I would say is pretty weak-sauce. I would not activate it. We're still playing with it and trying to figure [it] out... This is not the final form.
We're going to try to make Pandora more interesting or just cut it, I'm not above cutting it even though we just announced it.

So they might cut Pandora and it turns out you can start a match without selecting any gems. I get the feeling the community bitching about every little thing that isn't "tourney worthy" is a big factor in those design choices. Which is stupid.
It's good when a company listens to the fanbase but do they have to listen to the wrong things? Gems were supposed to be a big deal in the game but now it seems they aren't. They can't be, if you can play without them. Pandora was supposed to be a big "unholy gamble" mechanic but they might just get rid of it, though I hope they don't. I'd rather then just fixed it up a bit.
Maybe, instead of designing the game to what a small section of the people that play it want, Capcom could tell those people to adapt.
If they want to play as Ryu with in a generic, vanilla match. Go play SFII or SFIV.
