Has Scott stopped by in a while? Would love to hear the reasoning behind Trion starting its own Steam-like service with Glyph. It seems like such a weird move and the lineup is minuscule, but good luck to him -- Scott had always seemed like a cool dude.
Edit: I guess this was announced at GDC, didn't know. It officially launched now though. http://www.polygon.com/2014/3/12/5499898/glyph-drm-free-games-platform-trion-worlds

Quests have states: In-progress; "Under-achieved"; Complete; "More than necessary"; Overachieved. The ones in quotes aren't exactly what the quest helper says but that's generally what they mean. For practically all kill quests and for many of the quests where you just gather stuff, doing 50% more than the quest asks will get you to the Overachieved state. Quest says kill 20, kill 30 for overachieve; quest says kill 25, kill 38 for overachieve.
No specific dates announced for beta yet. They're still aiming for June. Beta will take place in 3 to 5 day events, some on weekends, some during the week. Alpha servers will go down during those events and be brought back up between them.

Hard to say if it's worth it, but at least you don't run out of quests and have to grind, granted you're just grinding the quests longer instead, so matter of taste. Some are really easy to overachieve though, like picking up shit while you're killing mobs, often you'll be done with the collection quest first so you might as well overachieve it. Personally while the leveling was absolute ass, I didn't mind versus say Wildstar because of a few reasons, first you level fast, you don't need that many quests per level and the TTK is lower on mobs and second because you don't get spammed by a fucking stupid amount of quests, you generally get 3quests per hub, sometimes 4-5, but never like 8 like you do in Wildstar, and you don't have the fucking "EH LISTEN" popups for challenges on top of it and all that fucking nonsense. It flows better, it's very simplistic questing but I found it a lot better than when I leveled in Wildstar, even though it's mostly the same shit, lots of bear ass quests.
I overachieved every quest cause I didn't mind, you probably don't need to though but you might run into xp issues at times. You definitely don't want to turn in early though, that's gonna fuck you, unless you don't mind grinding mobs.

Yes, you are already there pulling mobs and killing them, a few more doesnt hurt. Unless the spawns are thin and hard to get because of population.
There are PVP rewards and crafting mats that you can buy with honor points. Killing players does have a reward.

That doesnt solve the problem of there being nothing worthwhile to fight for. You sail around the ocean hoping to meet a group that will present a good fight, usually being disappointed.
Think you'll need a premium account to put houses down and that will keep a lot of the space available.
