I don't think they look bad, but everyone insists they're ugly as shit. I think they last a lot longer than normal roofs.

I don't think they necessarily look any worse than asphalt shingle roofs tbh. Who cares what 'people think'.

People's opinions about a fucking roof don't matter but this looks kind of dumb: https://metalrp.com/nitropack_static/zAftUFmYfAMLQshNAeUvNRczLjSzaTwm/assets/images/optimized/rev-9ab9ef9/metalrp.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/standing-seam-black.jpg

whereas this looks fine: https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/5fbc18c68916869a03b2f4fe/60070628cf48e4afb458bc75_4.png

it depends imo

I’ve seen these going up around me and I actually think they look pretty cool. It doesn’t mean that YOU will be cool if you get one, of course. You will still be fat.

Depending on the style of house, I think it looks fine. So if your friends and neighbors are similar to me, I'd go with it.

I know there are several colors, but 99% of the ones I've seen are green. No colors would look good with my siding.

It's fine as long as it matches the house. If you get a 2 story depending on home design, elevation, etc you may not even see the roof much anyways. And it's obviously better than a roof that will just fucking fail.

I still think spanish tile is the best looking roof though. If I were getting a new roof right now, I would go for fake tiles that are made of metal. Supposedly close to the longevity of a standard metal roof but much more aesthetic.
