Terabytes of the same game, just in different colors.
Sort of. The same game, over and over, each time in a different colour, each time with a higher pixel density, each time a little bit worse.
Which is exactly why I stopped playing after Gen 2, which was the peak of the series IMO. If you want to see everything the series has to offer, just play Gold/Silver (or their remakes on the DS). No reason to waste time and money on any other Pokémon game.
Radical Red and Polished Crystal are peak, in my opinion. I can't go back to the lack of special/physical split, it's just awful.
Have you tried Unbound?
I have! It was great as well. I think it's my favorite original romhack so far. I'm planning on playing Insurgence next, although that's a fan-game as opposed to real romhack.
I've got Insurgence, and Reborn ready to go as soon as I get through Unbound! I'm glad you've been able to enjoy these so much! As soon as Did You Know Gaming released a video about Nintendo taking down fan games and rom hacks, I immediately went and got as many of the more polished and lauded ones as soon as I possibly could! :)
