I think they already have an in game message board but it’s never been updated since launch, you know the message that says “welcome to sea of thieves” and then it goes on to referring you to the forums for latest news and updates?
Here’s the simple idea: a brand new NPC set at all the taverns located at the different outposts and when you interact with them they go on and tell you what’s new, what’s up and coming, where to go for this information, where to go for that, maintenance windows etc etc. I think it’s got potential and would fit into the world of SoT perfectly.. and definitely better than the bog standard message boards you see across most other online games today. I think this would be a more fun way to keep up with what’s going on.
For instance you could walk out of the tavern and upon something new that’s swinging our way, an NPC could automatically interact with you and say “Ahoy! Before you go... brand new developers update video has just landed on YouTube” (obviously with a #bemorepirate feel to it but you get the picture)
What do you think?
