Review Text: As therapeutic as it a technical masterpiece. I've seen Roccat products used by streamers and at Best Buy stores in the PC Gaming section, but until very recently, I have stuck to mainstream brands on the market for years. What a refreshing change this Vulcan TLK keyboard is! The spacing on each key allows for the most precise keystrokes my fingertips have had the pleasure of striking. The key caps are square, but concave in the middle to the perfect degree. What I find & mention as therapeutic, and never considered as a lifetime gamer, is how little effort and distance you need to press the keys for them to register. Its a total game changer that I don't think I will revert from. It's actually helping to relieve soreness at the base of my middle finger (left hand) from pressing/holding the "W" key a few million times over the last 20 years because so little effort and quick response. Lightning quick! While you can totally plug & play this with any computer out the box ASAP; downloading the Roccat Swarm software to manage profiles, lighting, firmware updates is a must. The technical design and features of the software accentuate an already beautifully illuminated, and keyboard layout for a gaming setup. Really nice software again and expect an update that requires you to unplug/replug for a moment for the firmware to take. On the note of plug, while the cord is not braided, it feels sturdy, and plugs in the keyboard via USB C. I love that. There is a "sound feedback" option that is really neat where you can make the keyboard click or sound like an old fashioned typewriter (though speakers or headphones)...it just has so many neat features and functions. Infinite light combinations with some cool AIMO intelligent lighting that I have to say is pretty smart. I usually have a solid color, but this is working really well w/ my Alienware rig and the random flowing colors just mesmerise me. The DJ style volume knob is pretty cool too. I love this keyboard! Going to have to switch over to mouse and mousepad ASAP.
