I mean I usually either play car games using the controller (BeamNG mostly), or I play 2d stuff (Terraria, Stardew Valley), and rarely FPS games (CS2)

My bad, didn't explain it well in my initial comment

I broke my A and S keys when cleaning: because the WASD keys on these keyboards are transparent, I could see all the hairs or dirt under them and once every 4 months let's say, I was pulling them off

And one day they didn't wanna reliably clip back in place anymore

So now I have Right Ctrl on A and Right FN on S to replace the keycaps

So, they're basically newer keys in there, and also they are not transparent like A and S were

As dope as human scars are I guess

4 years and 3 months still going strong. I use the touchpad a ton too and that coating on it has come off too, but it's perfectly usable. It also surprisingly lasted two pretty bad falls with just 1-2 minor cracks that I had to open the laptop up so that i can super glue the cracks just to ensure the cracks won't spread from future vibrations.

Visual condition is pretty unappealing, even a bit bad: the erased keycaps, the lifted coat off the touchpad and one visible crack, but it runs just as it did the day I got it

I don't know what I do to keyboards when I use them for a really long time, but I have the exact same laptop frame and keyboard and most modifier keys are unrecognizable and half of the WASD keys are rarely used keys because I fucked up the keycaps while cleaning and I got other keys off the keyboard in place of them. So anyways, my Windows key is abused beyond recognition and you can't tell it was a Windows key.
