If the lack of steam requirements is true for the retail release then you should be fine, however if it does require steam you will need to wait for finlands release date or trick steam into thinking your in Russia

Could you give us some info when you get hold of it and post videos asap

Hmm. Wonder how fast I could get a visa to russia. Train to St Petersbug shouldn't be more than 3~ hrs or so

Maybe even book a quick evening flight to meet Oleg in Moscow!

I have preordered it from Steam already, but if i get it from russia it takes time too, so it is really worth to buy couple of game and i win maybe 2 days

and maybe even not working

31.3 is release in Finland with steam.

RoF boxart and installer was in Russia but game itself was English

Some friends have bought digital Russian version. Tomorrow we will kniow if it works in EU.

P.S.: even if it will work, I am almost sure it will only have Russian GUI.

That MP podcast video GUI was english, so i think it's english.

Not sure of course. Maybe little trip to Russia

Russian shops say "Language: Russian" in descriptions without any other languages mentioned.

Also, think about this: digital Russian versions costs around 10€ and DVD around 14€. Certainly, there should be some method used for protection of other markets, or no one would buy it for something like 3-4 times more , if it worked fine everywhere in the world and the GUI was in English.
