you really need to determine if you're someone who likes stiff boots or noodles. From there you can really hone in on the boots for you. You can get 10 responses from guys on here but theres some that like stiff and some that like noodles.
I'm a stiff boot guy because my opinion is that in our steep terrain here in Idaho, the stiff boot keeps your foot muscles from getting as fatigued for long days and you've got way better protection against rolling an ankle. It does take more trial and error to get a stiff boot that works for your foot without issues. I personally love the Scarpa Ribelle lite with a cushioned insole for the last two years.
