No, it was not. Have a look at the US release. The Enix is right there on the box.

That doesn't change the fact at all.

When the Enix is on the box, it kind of does.

Not really, you said they died the moment they merged with Square Enix. So, unless you think the Japanese and American versions are drastically different what you're saying holds no truth. However, even if it was true, that makes no sense at all, not enjoying a game specifically because it has Enix slapped on teh cover?

Are you doing this on purpose?
The game was produced and published in Japan by Squaresoft prior to the merge. It has the S-E logo on the US cover because it didn't release simultaneously worldwide and came out 8 months after the Japanese version. Months after the two companies merged.

The bolded were not published by Squaresoft.
Anyway, Square-Enix is more focused on making technically impressive cinematic experiences than fun games, but failed at doing even that because their proprietary engines were failures (until recently.) Excepting the Enix-side of things. Dragon Quest has retained its quality, but it is Dragon Quest after-all, that is a safety net.
Also I think Square let a lot of their talent leave the company to start their own stuff.

You mean the same creative magic behind less recent underwhelming works such as Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey and maybe even The Last Story ? |
All of which are miles above everything square Enix has done since ffx...
This man happened.
