This thread is like the English speakers laughing at the Japanese/chinese/etc etc(I hope you get my idea) because they can only speak Engrish.

I don't mean for this to be a racist/insensitive comment, so please don't read too much into this.

Funny. I came to my Das then Filco from this piece of ****e Lycosa laying in the corner. I returned 3 of them for the touch area not working. 2 of which were unusable because it acted as if multiple keys were being held down.

But, ya bro, it's a great kb!

heh, yea really. Especially talking in a gaming context, simply buying a certain keyboard won't do a whole lot to make you any better at a game.

Not so much that his taste is different (and terrible), but the fact that he tries to say that his taste is the best.

And his fonts are horrendous.

I laugh at it as well!
For after all, our taste in keyboards is the best taste.:tea:

I really like his font choice though.

Dell TactX Alienware quoted as "Probably the highest quality keyboard around". $99 price tag. Also LOL @ the number 1 Tt Esports keyboard that does everything except wipe your ass.

Maybe the creator of that video has been hanging out with these guys...

One of the things that drew me to mechanical keyboards is the simple look. Other than most of the keyboards being rubber domes, I wouldn't ever buy a single one cos of how flashy and ugly they all are.

Couldn't get past the first 10 seconds, that 80's B movie music made me want to kill myself.

Makes me glad that I am not a gamer.

I suppose that these "specifications" would be helpful to somebody who was trying to select between these things, but the poster might have included just a hint as to what they actually "felt like" when he was actually "using" them - I put these words in quote marks because the whole thing comes off like a static store display devoid of experience. Was experience actually involved at all?

Presumably, gamers are fanatic about how their tools work, not how they look. Even more so than ordinary fanatics such as myself.

But this character, like millions of other YouTube posters, obviously fails to recognize how truly embarrassing his handiwork really is.

A video about what a guy thinks are the best (subjective of course) keyboards.

You have terrible memory!
