WoW in Russia, and WoW vs. FFXI

Triel_Toria

hi2all
I have 2 questions.
1st, what's better for me? WoW or FFXI?
I'm fan of Warcraft and Final Fantasy, and I cannot chose between. Help me plz.
2nd, how can i get WoW in Russia? Many US shops don't have delivery in Russia, and this is BIG problem for me (FFXI in december will be selling in Russia).
And if someone playing in WoW now, can he tell me, what connection i need (minimum, but not lagging), and how many Megabytes of traffic in hours WoW need.
Thnx for answers.

Hey, I live near you, in Estonia to be exact. Does that mean that Estonia will get FF XI too in December?

Also, my topic may help you a bit to choose.

Maybe you could play WoW on a EU-server? I should be avaliable to get from online-shops. I think the EU -servers will suit better in your timezone, depending on where in Russia you live. Russia is laaarge  I havent played Final Fantasy but I can recommend WoW. I played the american open beta and I will soon play the European closed beta as soon it starts. I think its a good mmorpg. Not particular fresh or revoltunary but they have picked the best parts from many mmorpg and implement them in WoW. Im from a next-next close neighbour, Sweden

Here Akella localizating FFXI in december, and I think if I'll send u FFXI by mail, u'll recive them. Here FFXI will be only on English language, but with Russian documentation. DVD-Box, will cost 30$.

По русски.
Я думаю что смогу играть на европейских серверах ВоВа.

Тут кароче Акелла локализует Финалку, как мне сказали что сегодня уже, 1-го числа, должны были диски пройти через таможню и быть в России, но все ща зависит от таможни. Но я думаю что в середине декабря они уже должны поступить в продажу. Игра останется на Английском языке, но с Русской документацией. Будет в ДВД-Боксе и стоить будет 30 баков

It was same on Russian language

WoW in Russia will be playable on the EU ervers after the EU official release just because of one simpl reason ---> Russia belongs to the European region considering game production and selling. I would wait til WoW because waht I've heard about FFXI did not sound too impressive (didn't play this game). FFXI looks like neverending boring GRIND which follows you all the time you are in the game not depending on the level you achieved...
Or the best way, just et yourself a version of EQ2 which does not divide people into stupid geographic regions and have fun, I'm playing it and it's much more interesting than WOW (I've played WoW CB, so can compare both )

FFXI is horrible -.- Unless you can devote 18 hours a day to actually playing the game, then don even think abt it.. Plus, have to wait 5+ hrs to get a party past lvl 40, n it's absolutely IMPOSSIBLE to solo for experience. I havent played WoW yet, but Im pretty sure its 200X better than FFXI (if its not... then Ive lost all hope in devs >.<)
