Wow, this shouldn't be a hard choice. Keeping the current model of buy to play would be best, I wouldn't think that Palworld would even benefit from a live-service model, given those games seem to die a lot faster than the standard buy and play.

Typically live service games last a lot longer in terms of new content and updates. There are a lot of recent complete failures of live services though that didn't make it more than a couple of months ... they're just bad games.
