The Lounge 0001 [From the Beginning]

Switching out the stems changes how they feel sometimes as they are pretty much all built a bit differently (well, most Cherry stems are the same, most kailhs are the same, but a kailh and a cherry will differ from each other).

The main thing with the naming schemes has to do with the colors though. Like Gateron Yellows are one thing, gateron blacks a different ones, etc etc

And to answer the question you can’t really see the stems but can definitely see the housing.

So the orange ones will be interesting, lol.

But you said they’re both clicky, so how do they feel different without swapping the spring too?

Potentially you could have the surface area actuating the spring be different, which therefore would increase or decrease the amount of pressure needed?

I’m not a physicist tho so idk…

And you think changing how they look on the surface will change who they are inside?
That’s pretty superficial.

Kailh navies use a click bar rather than the usual click jacket on cherry style switches, so if I switch out the stem from an orange into the navy one it will make it even clicker lol.

A taken apart box switch;

And the orange one.

And then there’s ones that are so completely different I’m not even going to try to explain lol.
Also further explanation of Navy switches;

Kind of not really. Different plastics definitely make a difference in switch feel though.
Mostly down to different mechanical ways to make the switch work.
Also @thediddilyhorror some switches are lubed inside as well so that can also effect things.

Yes @dje4321 keyboard switches can be lubed, and yes it definitely makes for some amusing things when talking about keyboards and switches sometimes lel

How long was the story?

I’ve spent 37 hours in this game but the story is more passive, its mostly from letters and messages around the map but there is a final location you can get to in the game the ends the story and rolls the credits. You can still continue afterwards because the game is a sandbox.

Didn’t you just get it a few days ago?

I got it exactly a week ago, is a really fun and addicting game.

37h a week sounds like work.
