My primary factor is the model range. I'm willing to put up with weaker rules and fluff if I really love the model aesthetics, but not vice versa.
As a man who's played Ravenwing since 2nd edition when it didn't have real rules I whole heartedly agree. In third edition fielding 30 models in a 2000pt game was rough but I love my speeders and bikes. Years later we would get the dakka banner, it flew too close to the sun, for one edition and then flying churches. Good times despite being called a meta chaser by people who just started and didn't know the struggle. Same for my Deathwing.
While this is funny and true I prefer the original. Skaven and lizardmen is the true art.
This needed to be said.
When my friends parents were playing meh music my mother raised used to play Alice Cooper, Jethro Tull and the Moody Blues. Then the 80s came along and she doubled down as she hated the new music.
