Exactly this is what I feel like Elden Ring has been missing from the start - factions with rewards to encourage multiplayer engagement. I even miss Aldrich invasions and being a mound maker. Half the invaders in Elden Ring play like mound makers anyways and attack everything indiscriminately… may as well get some shackles for it.
That and the removal of the ember/humanity requirement made it less likely that people would be exposed to invasions. I remember beating bosses, forgetting I was ember-ed, and run into an invader at the worst/best possible moment. I know that some people hated being forced into PVP, but it got the blood flowing and made every play-through feel just a little unique. It added character to the world, made it feel alive.
