Pocketpair's publishing manager, John 'Bucky' Buckley, has discussed his preference for indies over AAA games, saying that big-budget titles are "overwhelmingly about graphic quality and fidelity" and that he doesn't "have much interest in their gameplay mechanics," admitting that he hasn't really touched them.

In an interview with 4gamer about the publishing arm of the Palworld developer, Bucky discusses his gaming preferences, showing a clear inclination for indie games over AAA titles. As translated by GamesRadar+, "I usually play indie games," Bucky says. "I play a lot of different indies, even smaller games, but I haven't really touched so-called AAA titles."
