lmao, I hate them for completely different reasons (which speaks badly about primaris since there are different "schools of thought" about why they suck).
I hate that they are mono pose, making every army look too similar. I also hate the gameplay. tactical/assault/devastator squads brought a lot of customization to each unit, you could design those units with very different kind of goals in mind, the weapon versatility made it a lot of fun for me.
But Primaris?, come on dude!, is all or nothing, every single marine in the unit HAS to carry the same type of weapon, is bullshit, you cant customize your intercessors for different enemies, you can only get your bolt rifles and that's it.
Also, the use of the heavy armor (gravis) is so random, the guys carrying flamers (sorry, Pyreblasters) don't have heavy armor but the fast flying unit with high mobility has it?, wtf?.
The names are also super dumb. Tactical, Assault and Devastator immediately give you an idea of what the unit does (versatility, quick melee and heavy damage), but wtf is a intercessor?, what does an inceptor?, why can't the guys with the meltas be called hellblasters and the guys with plasma be called Eradicators?, all the names are stupid and nonsensical except Infernus Squad, that's the only unit that you immediately get what they do, the only primaris unit with a good name.
I like the new models tho, they are super good in execution, but as a DA player I miss when the divergent chapters had more pieces of unique aesthetic, the robes over the armor in case of the green wing, and the old Ravenwing bikes, they had such a different aesthetic to other chapters, now all you have are the same robes under the armor that everyone else gets and the same outrider bike but with a single wing on the back (Blood angels players are fucked tho, they used to have their own tactical and death company boxes, now all they have are intercessors painted with different colors, lol also, the new SG is dogshit)
