Hej!
I'm playing Albion Online nowadays, but I would like to say a couple of things about this game.
If you want to play a game which contains gathering and crafting any resources and construct buildings, Albion Online is really a chill place to get in. If you want to play PvP, too, there are Guilds seeking people like you.
The only problem is the ping; because it is in NA. And if you are playing in Europe, your ping will be high. I wish they have EU and NA Megaservers, thus no complain about ping.
Also, if you want to spend time in this game, try to find a guild with good people in it, don't try to find rich guilds. Because this game will be fun with good friends in the game, guilds which needs low taxes and work time.
By the way, Silver is in-game currency and you can farm it by selling crafting materials, raw materials, crafted items, and etc., and this makes the game's PvP clearly pay to win. Because you can buy Gold from the in-game store and then you can spend this Gold to buy Silver. With Silver you can buy a lot of items from Marketplace without crafting, gathering, or anything you than the people who spend a lot of time to craft their items.
Cheers!
