I was annoyed with what IDW did to most G1 characterizations until I realized that IDW is an entirely different universe than cartoon/Marvel G1 with entirely different characters using the same names and models. IDW Prowl is no more G1 Prowl than TFA Prowl was. IDW Megatron owes more, conceptually, to TFA Megatron and TF:P Megatron than he does to G1 Megatron.
I prefer G1 Rodimus to IDW Rodimus; if IDW Rodimus is supposed to be going through a character development and maturation arc, I wish he'd get on with it already!
Bayverse is the only iteration of Transformers to just leave me cold. I don't care about any of the characters except maybe Michaela and the NEST guys, and they dumped her from the movies. They were fun to watch for the shiny and the explosions, but I'm not invested in any of the robots. I have no interest in reading or writing Bayverse fiction. That says something, when I have enjoyed ficcing or reading fic in every other incarnation of TF.
