Cons
Con Good looking but a terrible choice for any serious development
Terrible lack of support and lack of a serious delivery strategy. Multiple breaking changes to the master branches (usually the only branch actually) from the core projects as well as the myriad of dependencies it uses make it a nightmare to have something stable to create with. Might be good for prototyping if you stick to the releases, but stay away if you are planning to create something serious
Con Not much developers use it
Armory3d seems to be quite exotic and it should be hard to find developers to help in projects
Con Lack of documentation
Con Still in development
