Game locked in russian while purchased from EU?

So.. I just bought the game, downloaded it, tried to start playing it, and everything is in russian? I bought it off of steam, not some shady third party retailer or anything. I have no clue what is going on.



*****EDIT*****



I was able to fix it -- apparently I had to right click the game and then set the language to english manually, and it made me download a 1.8 gig patch? What? That... that in no way makes sense. But whatever.
