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.

But why? It looks ugly af.

Even games workshop would be impressed at that level of overpriced plastic

“The intent is to provide players with a sense of pride and accomplishment…” vibes.

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.

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!!

With 3D printers in play, how is stuff like this still a thing?

Good luck selling 5 of those.

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.

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

JFC that site is cancer.

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

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.
