I do kinda dig the Vision of Windows 8, y'know? Huge focus on Convergence, the unified design language of Metro, Windows Phone's slick design...
Problem is they didn't stick the landing at all, threw everything good in the trash with 10, set the trash can on fire with 11.
Call me crazy but I do think Metro was a much more cohesive design motif than the Fluent that Microsoft slapped on right at the end of 10 and still haven't decided how to handle on 11.
