I believe that it "thocks," from what I understand. It sounds also like it's kinda sandy, if you know what I mean. Not sure how to describe it. But yeah, I love this thing to death already.

Anyone else has one? And if so, which one? Which type?

I got a Nuphy 75 v2, for the record, just yesterday.

    Analog keyboards are a whole thing. They caused a controversy in the Trackmania community because the game is balanced for controllers and keyboard to be fairly equal, but analog keyboards gain the best of both worlds so they were far better than any other option for certain races, meaning competitive players were forced to switch to very expensive hardware. The devs had to come up with some complicated rules to deal with that kind of input device.

      I used to play Trackmania on keyboard, it worked pretty well. Now I play Rocket League using only keyboard. Those analog keyboards are still around? I thought it was for sure a fad, but I guess online anything can have a niche long tail eventually.

        They definitely are still around. I'm sure there are other games where they're relevant, racing is probably the clearest usecase but I wouldn't be surprised if they also could be used for shooters or platformers that have controller support.
