I believe the oxford/az vaccine is using more traditional methods. It uses a modified virus that is only able to infect monkeys, so it is not harmful to humans.

I don't think that novel is necessarily what you want when it comes to a vaccine. Kind of like saying that x software is better because they used all the very newest tech that just came out. I would prefer something tried and tested. However, the data and results for the mrna vaccines seem very positive so I would still be fine taking it.
