One thing I’m interested in is whether different makes it easier or harder to make the switch.
- Similar (Pathfinder to 3e or Level Up to 5e) means the cost of learning new rules is mitigated. But you end up wondering whether the switch is worth the effort if it’s not that different. A much easier sell if the edition is going out of print like 3e.
- Different (5e to Alien RPG) means there is a big potential payback if it works out, but more investment in rules and creative effort to get there.
