Its honestly such a dead game at the moment, as in the world feels super empty and uninteresting. The pathing for the Pals is really bad too - trying to build a multistorey building is basically a nonstarter as they can't really navigate up stairs.
Based on that you can get costumes/skins for your Pals, I'm pretty sure they'll go live service with those as micro transactions.
It was a fun game for a few hours, but my god it was so fucking overrated. They had a lucky shot hitting the timing on the early access since Pokemon was just another terrible lazy cashgrab job, so practically anything that did even remotely better would get praised into oblivion.
And like 4 months later only 1% of the amount of peak players still remains. I don't think they'll ever get close to that peak again.
