so like, do they add permanent town or battle against npc like pokemon to encourage nomad style gameplay like pokemon? I've been holding for so long to replay Palworld and I really want to travel around battling pals capture 'em and meet npc and such like pokemon does.

I understand they want to do different thing from pokemon and be original at it but then, all you see are more ark this ark that it feel repetitive. Remember that old unity engine trailer back then? Like seriously when will they add castle town, huge forts etc? I know it might be bullshot but come on palworld..
