do people not realize this isn't the first time nexon worked with valve. Nexon works on Counter Strike Online with them, which isnt a totally true sequel to counterstrike series but counterstrike none the less.

They're nothing but publishers, Nexon has no say in balance nor anything in that regard.
So whatever.
Store will remain cosmetic and balance remains in the hands of IceFrog.
Only thing left for nexon is publishing and customer support.
I mean, Perfect world will be publishing it in China after all. And the different servers will be able to play with eachother internationally, so the gameplay and so on will be the same for everyone, really.

Korea is so LoL-dominated and PC Gaming isn't even that big in Japan. I wonder how this will go.

I am pretty sure valve knows what they're doing in regards to business. I mean why would they seek out Nexon to publish it if they could see already that there was no money in it? They have probably put thought into it.
