Unfortunately, there is a bigger problem. Because the gameplay is not divided regionally (ie only NA on these servers, EU on those, and JP only on these, they are all on the same server at the same time)--all the regional locations have to synch up somehow. Won't get into the specifics as it's been covered exhaustingly in the other dozen posts on this issue--but you would be paying a heck of a lot more than $13 USD a month to play it.
