I like the kripke era for a few reasons:

-One of the biggest things about the later seasons that I don't like is how easily everything can be killed. Everyone has a angel blade which makes the demon blade worthless and the value of the colt less. I liked it better in seasons 1-3 when the colt was pretty much the only thing that could kill higher beings, making the colt feel more powerful and something of awe. Now to kill a higher being you can use an archangel blade, the lance of michael, heaveans weapons, the first blade and so forth.

-Another is how everything is ridiculously nerfed. In the season 12 finale, it was pretty dumb how Lucifer didn't snap his fingers to kill Sam, Dean and Castiel. Also Castiel is weaker for no reason. I feel like the writers have forgotten he is a Seraph, considering how he and everyone else refers to him as an angel. Also how he and Gabriel couldn't bring back Sam. I know he lost his wings, but that only affects flight, so all his other abilities should be intact.

-I also dont like how they reveal everything. They revealed how the colt bullets were made, where monsters and hellhounds come from. I like it better when there's some mystery. Before they explained the alphas and eve, monsters had no explantion for their existence, they just were, and that made it creepier and a lot more ominous.
