    Why do you think most games are released with support for these languages in Europe?

    Because the markets are big and games wouldn't sell well if they weren't in their respective languages.

    As Disgaea and Persona as franchises only had a german package but a english game for the longest time.
    Star Ocean 5 comes to my mind. It had a french localizaction but not a german one, Germany got just the english localization. But France is a bit different because there are a lot fewer people who understand english and sales would be even lower than in other countries if it was just in english.
