Yeah, it determines how decisions are made but not what decisions, as those are majorly determined by mode of production, class character of the state + it’s interests, material conditions of the time, etc.
Does a form of government have influence? Maybe, but at best it’s relatively minor compared to aforementioned factors. You can see this with bourgeois states of today, where many share the exact same form of government but have vastly different policies that are the result of historical conditions (i.e. compromises given to workers to avert revolutions for instance) and their level of wealth, but overall it’s all done to preserve the power of capital and to further its interests as that is its class character.
