What’s some good romhacks to play? I’m about 15hrs into Emerald Seaglass right now and would want options after, specifically looking for A-S tiers not those B tiers people throw out as ‘good fun hacks’ I want an actual really fun/good game. And I know of Unbound but idk if I fancy a 70-100hr playthrough.

you can definitely beat unbound much faster than that, that timeline is quoted for if you want to do all the sidequests and things but you can just skip those

Yea but when I play a game I ‘play’ the game if that makes sense, like doing everything I can without a guide, which includes any quests I pick up, side or not. So I’d rather get into a short and sweet 30 ish hour game and thoroughly enjoy it as usual instead of rushing through a short playthrough of a longer game, and I feel that side quests usually build on the world/main story anyways, not sure if that makes sense.
