Personally I grew up with the original run of FMA, and I prefer it a lot more. If you're going to watch FMA:Brotherhood it's best to watch the original FMA first, since the it does the first 20-30 episodes so much better than in FMA:B.
I don't care if the Brotherhood version is "more accurate to the manga." Sometimes the manga has terrible ideas and then they're fixed for the anime, or the anime goes in a different direction, which is what I like about the original FMA. The ending is EXTREMELY different but I feel it's far more personal to the boys and their story, instead of a Marvel movie type ending in Brotherhood where "oh no there's a giant alien thing that's gonna kill everyone! we gotta stop it!" Who cares? I want to focus on the people we actually care about, not the entire world.
When the world is ending you focus on your family and loved ones, not people you don't know. Maybe it sounds selfish but that's just how humans are. You want to protect your immediate family, you have no time for others.
Anyway that's my 2 cents. I'll probably be down-voted for it because people don't like opinions or something.
