So to save some money can I go to the Russian steam site and buy the same games for cheaper? Are the games only playable by region or language?

So don't use a Proxy/VPN when buying the games? Also how can you check which games are region locked?

You can not buy games, because you not have russian IP.
Russian steamstore also not accept PayPal.

Russian gamers can see a warning box when visiting a store page of a region-locked game.

Many are locked and you most likely will only be able to buy there if you have both a Russian CC and IP adress

Many recent games are region-locked - they can only be activated or played in Russia and CIS countries. Some games are not even giftable if bought in the Russian section of the store.
