Good luck selling 5 of those.
Where does razer place on the pyramid of companies that should be burnt down and its ashes collectively pissed in?
I would say its probably… just below ubisoft, who is tied with EA, both of whom are just beloe nvidia.
It costs $90 to recoup the R&D expenses incurred from developing a way to make a plastic keycap with no moving parts or electronic components mysteriously stop working three months after purchase, so we can deny your warranty claim on it. That was a very difficult feature to add, we’ll have you know.
“The intent is to provide players with a sense of pride and accomplishment…” vibes.
But why? It looks ugly af.
also uncomfortable as fuck.
I’m just surprised they didn’t slap some LEDs in the eyes…
Way to ruin this for me. Now I’m not buying it until they give me LED eyes.
I dunno, I kinda like the audacity of it not fitting anything else on my desk. If it were $10 and still as well shaded it could be my print screen key or something
PR nonsense? It sounds like complete honesty to me. It’s difficult to imagine a way to pay $90 for a single keycap without allegiance to a cult.
Even games workshop would be impressed at that level of overpriced plastic
With 3D printers in play, how is stuff like this still a thing?
Because the quality is garbage unless you’re fucking with resin.
Can you get the kind of detail shown in the pic? At that granularity? How much post print sanding is needed?
Because the quality you get with 3D printers is still far below what is produced with injection molding or pressure cast resin, really. 3D printing is great, but there’s still huge advances to be made in both FDM and the various SLA-like systems. Oh that and razer fanboys are all fundementally broken.
Because we just aren’t a serious species
Guys, peeps, dudes…there’s a lot of negative speak in these comments. It’s like you don’t want to wildly overpay for a bit of plastic that cost almost nothing to design and make? It’s even like you don’t want to be in a cult!!
Come on, join the cult. Buy the overpriced piece of shit and only then you’ll be able to look down on the paupers!!Repeat after me:
Buy the tat, join the cult.
Buy the tat, join the cult.
Buy the tat, join the cult!!!
Nanananana Razer
NANANANANA RAZER!!that cost almost nothing to design and make?
It says they’re hand-painted. So it probably cost 10 bucks to make, actually.
When I was young a stupid, I bought razer stuff and most of it has broke by now. Within 2-3 years the battery bloated and it was a known common issue in the community. I replaced the battery and the new one also bloated. For the mouse, the outer construction was trash so the grips and paint peeled off, the keyboard just refused to work reliably iirc.
Terrible terrible company
It should launch the Python IDE whenever pressed. Similar keycap for Rust developers comes with a tetanus vaccine at a whooping $299 a piece.
Brand allegiance might be stupid on its face, but dig a little deeper, and brand allegiance to Razer specifically is even dumber.
I’m amazed Razer is still around.
Artisan key caps can be cool, fuck Razer and their shitty overpriced peripherals though.
Surprised it doesn’t come with mandatory spyware before it works
Presumably, you’re putting this on a Razer keyboard and you already have the spyware running.
Or you’re putting it on a non-Razer keyboard, then… why??
Althoug I could imagine a scenario of a cultist running Linux, which Razer obviously doesn’t support.
