I opened the launcher.
I obliviously waited for the play button to appear for 2 seconds, meanwhile looking in random directions in my screen.
And I noticed some new stuff on the "News" column.
"Might as well take a look", I said to myself.
So I opened the ESO website.
And then I saw it.
Crown Store Showcase.
My heart skipped a beat, and then started racing, faster than Usain Bolt being chased by the *** in southern Texas.
Simple maths was in my head for a fraction of second.
Nord Hero costume was announced by the end of January.
Elf Hero costume was announced by the end of March, 2 months later.
Today is 27 of May, nearly 2 months after the Elf Hero costume.
I hurriedly clicked the link, and scrolled all over the article.
Some bullcrap about hats. This isn't Team Fortress, damn it.
Toxin Doctor. Useful for preventing contamination from the community's toxicity, but absolutely shadowed by what I hoped to find. Skipped.
Another dress. Feeling like I'm in some unending version of one of those hellishly boring Prada, Gucci or whatever fashion shows.
End of Costumes section.
The End.
Fin.
Nothing of it.
Absolutely nothing.
All I wanted was a costume that would make us archers look good. We already suffer from low dps disease. We are looked down at by melee players.
But I didn't care. I know I'll never be top 1 DPS, not with my 300 ping with 999+ spikes, not with my 20 fps, most certainly not with my *** tier skills and picking the race I like best instead of the min/maxer one.
All I wanted was to be an archer. No, I'm not a Skyrim fanboy, please don't tell me to go back there. I'm an archery fanboy. I love the feeling of drawing a bow, hearing the sound of the string, then letting an arrow fly loose, bringing death from afar.
All I wanted was to spend my hard earned cash on the costume that made us archers finally look badass.
I'm not mad at ZoS, this isn't whining. I'm not asking them to bring out a costume whenever I want. I just wanted to say I was really hyped for it. But then... nothing. Just sadness.
