NewWorld but same old grind

A few words on the September 2020 preview build

So I've played the some of the alpha and this months preview build and not much has changed. Yes your not constantly looking over your shoulder expecting to be ganked like the alpha was, and now there are quests. But the quest system if you dont flag for PVP is a grind fest.

The faction rewards are way out of my reach at level 22 playing casually. You need to reach level 20  before you can buy anything from the faction then the free first tier are consumables. To access the armour there is a pay wall of 1000 faction coins. 

The non PVP faction quests only seem to pay out 40 - 60 faction coins where the PVP quests pay out 400 - 600 faction coins. I want to enjoy the game not be worrying about being ganked while doing a PVP quest that just involves going to mob infested ruined temple to collect a few items.
