I like ALL pinball but given the choice of ownership, Sterns continue to be on the bottom of the list.
As my tastes continue to grow I find I like GTB games more than most and would often prefer an obscure D title to most that I can fix up and appreciate rather than what I find to be cheap and very similar feel of most Sterns. I find that most new Sterns games offer very little variety in overall gameplay or general equation of what they think 'makes' a pinball. In conjunction I disliek the majority of the Stern themes.
If anything I would say I am the opposite and the more I work on pins and fix them up, the more I appreciate some of the ingenuity of older games and am disappoint in how little Stern has pushed the limits to make something novel.
I will say that the new hardware and very interesting design of WWE seems to be a huge leap forward and I am more excited about that game (design and layout) then pretty much every other Stern.
