    I've heard lots of people rip on razer for bad software, and faulty products, but I've only ever experienced the former. I've had a couple pairs of their kraken pro headphones over the years, and they've always been great. I also am using the same ouroborous mouse and deathstalker keyboard that I've had for prolly a good 4 or 5 years at this point, and the only issue I've had is when razer dropped support for them from their software. :/ My mouse is starting to have issues with the scroll wheel, sometimes it jumps a step in the opposite direction, but beyond that, both the mouse and keyboard are still going strong. I'm particularly thankful for that with the keyboard, because I greatly prefer the chiclet style, and from my looking, there doesn't seem to be any high-end gaming-oriented chiclet keyboards left on the market...

      I agree, pay to *progress faster* is definitely a thing, been playing since 1.27 (now 1.99, started in 2013) and there's never been a time of when someone can:
      1. Buy a plane/tank of THE highest tier (They added Tier 5 premium plane(s) when Tier 6 rolled out for example.
      2. Buying a plane/tank/ship will not insta-kill others, or win the game on it's own. So pay "to win" is definitely misleading.

    I wish small keyboards were more popular back in the 90's and early 2000s.
    I couldn't afford a real desk, so I had to make due with a tiny TV dinner table that I had to leave half my keyboard hanging off the desk to have any room for a mouse.

    The purple switches on this board is incredible to type on, especially if you want to use a light touch and use that tactile feedback to adjust your force in order not to bottom out. However, I regularly get tired of the horrible sounds it has. So much so that I god a Ducky One 3 with non-clicky switches as a second board becuase it was driving me mad. But even though the Ducky sounds, feels and looks like a higher quality board, I keep returning to typing on the Huntsman Mini now and then because the switches are just so superior to type on compared to any mechanical switch I've tried. The low actuation force, crisp tactile feedback at the exact point of actuation, combined with a relatively high bottom out force makes for quite a unique switch as far as I know. But using it too long without a headset will eventually make me put it in the drawer and get out my non-clicky board every time. Because man this thing is VERY rattly and loud...

    60% keyboards make no sense.
    1. The F keys don't have to be removed, just make them much smaller, like some kind of second class keys.
    2. You don't have to remove the arrow keys, just set them to light-up when toggled on, in IJKL or something.
    3. You don't even have to get rid of the numpad, just design the number row in a less retarded way so it's usable. e.g. Shift the number row so it's aligned with the row below, making it feel and function much like the numpad when some toggle button is pressed.
    4. More generally, why is the letter section NEVER a different shade/color? The design language makes it seem like the L key is in the same category as the semi-colon. And the way the semi-colon is painted on gives it the same importance as the colon even though that needs a modifier key.
    5. WHY is everyone soooo scared to innovate just a tiny little bit?!
    Did you know, the qwerty layout is pretty much completely arbitrary? You know how, normally, people design things, we don't just sit on rocks or random shapes, we have chairs that take into account the curvature of the spine, the position of the legs etc. When it comes to keyboards, however, even if a company makes an "enthusiast" "crazy expensive" keyboard, it's still always gonna be the same old shit.
    "b-but how could you improve on it? Surely everything possible has already been tried" - Nope. People are idiots. That's just a fact of current day society. The way evolution works is, generally, if you're smart enough to survive, that's as far as you go. How smart do people need to be to survive? Well, can you survive with an IQ below 70? You tell me.

      Only good thing corsair does are the white PBT Keycaps. Rest is obsolete. Roccat and Steelseries dont have any good keyboard.
      Go with Custom. Or Prebuild Mod. You will save money. In comparison the prices for Razer, logitech and so on are too high. If you want a pricy prebuild KB, buy a ducky. 2022 anything which is not hotswap, detachable usb c, bt and\or 2.4ghz, ds pbt, good stabs, good lightig is not worth it. i dont need superfast gamerswitches on the whole kb.
