MakamiYea, I've personally never been keen on their old style either but it's definitely better than this gamer-ish look the RBG has - not just because of the colours but the aesthetic in general is not my thing.
That said, hopefully this means more Topre boards with MX compatibility keep coming out, that's definitely a huge step forward.
VigrithMight be the approach to get a bigger/wider audience, which is understandable, somehow.
But this reminds me of cars, the old ones, you could tell from a far distance by the shilouette which car it is, even being a "noob", today they all have the "same" streamlined look.
Can't tell if this is the evolution Realforce lovers had been waiting for, time and numbers will tell.
JtragicMakes me wonder, i use cheap clonesliders with my Realforce alphas and they're smooth like the genuine ones.
The stock clone sliders of my RoyalKludge had been a bit scratchy at the beginning, too. But a little lube on the rails solved that, scratch is completly gone by now.
Today i've gotten another clone one, a Plum, a little bit scratchy, too. Just had a 15 minutes fight to open that damm case, what a though cookie. Going to be lubed too the next days, including a dome switch, 35g way to light for me.
MakamiAll they had to do was replace the sliders with the realforce and make it standard bottom row.. people would of cashed out same with me personally
My wallet is so happy :)
