| Yes douchebag, but not this company, and this isn't just a localizaion. HIRING a company to do a localization is not nearly the same thing as PARTNERING with a company to let them publish a game.
Now it's not interesting that SOE is having an outside company publish one of their games overseas, they've done this frequently.
The interesting part is that Square-Enix is not only publishing a game they didn't make, which is a rare occurance inandof itself, but is publishing a game developed in America that they had no part of, which is, well, a first as far as I know.
Name the last external American developed video game Square, Enix, or Square-Enix published in Japan. Go ahead, do it. You'll have to go back fuckin far if you find one at all.
