Different overseas?

So, I really liked this game. It's better than most, for sure....but I was looking for something to replace Fantasy Earth Zero(since it's not around anymore). They both have their pros and cons, and DWO has a lot of stuff that FEZ doesn't have, but I just thought FEZ was better. The only thing that really, really killed DWO for me was the 12-minute time limit. I could see the potential in this game, and I really liked it at the lower levels because I couldn't imagine that it wouldn't get better once I became stronger(due to territory campaign battles), but.....the campaign battles also have a 12-minute time limit

That makes it feel like a little skirmish, not a battle. FEZ's battles were 40(or 50...I don't remember) minutes long. It got my adrenaline going, and *all* I cared about in the world half-way through the battle was winning and getting territory for Gevrandia to finally bring honor to our nation that had always been laughed at(we never got off of our main land xD). 

I still look at this game's website every now and then and think about what it could have been if only the battles lasted a lot longer. It didn't have 50 vs 50 battles like FEZ had, but it made up for it with NPC enemies during wars and stuff. 

But, have they changed this in China or Japan or wherever else the game is hosted? Is it any better over there? If it is...I know that I have something to look forward to, and I'd like to start playing again.
