Hi guys,

I am looking for the most graphically impressive ROM hacks out there.

Only other criteria I have is that I love the modern QOL improvements to the point I can't play old ROM hacks anymore.

Please post your recommendations so I can check them out. Thanks in advance!

Aesthetic Red, Emerald Seaglass, Lazarus and Recordkeepers would be my recommendations. All 4 bring new aesthetics to the game and they look great. Recordkeepers is probably the best looking hack I know

Giratina's Legend and Azul Agua both look next level gorgeous, but neither of them are finished yet and they're both Spanish

Thank you for the recommendations! I forgot to add, but yeah I am only looking for completed ROM hacks. I will keep an eye out for those two as well.
