I mean apart from the dvertising and box art do they have any say over how the game should play? i am only asking because of the SH5 feasco.

Yes, with some influence from 1C (negociation)
I do not think they have much say in the gameplay

mostly gonna depend on the contracts. Though, when I was at Midway we were doing publishing for other folks on a fairly regular basis. Midway took care of the marketing stuff and did the distro and that was pretty much it.
Probably works best for the distro folks to stay out of the dev/pd folks way. Otherwise the already too long wait for release would be way worse.
