I have come up with the idea of a new biome that might actually be possible given the capabilities of sea of thieves
a lot of people including myself have talked about wanting a new biome specifically an ice Biome but sense my opinion on that has changed maybe there could be a more semi-realistic approach for a new biome type.
The Swamp Lands- a mix of the ancient isles and the wilds this new biome could be the empty space towards between the devils roar and ancient isles or a completely new area.
Unlike the rest of the biome this new one is different being a cluster of islands closer together in a connecting river and one outpost/sell point
This environment could be untouched only recently revealed by the shroud
The landscape could be similar to the swamp in Captains of Damned Tall Tale #3 But be on a decently larger scale
In terms of ideas that would make the biome unique I think it would be neat for a new type of quest to adventure deep into the murky swamp through thick flora and it would be interesting to be able to cut giant plants with your cutlass to traverse the landscape.
As far as Fauna goes I think it would be nice to introduce new types of fauna from the concept art for the game (Dodos, and Boars) and aggressive animals like crocodiles
This would give us an opportunity to see new creatures in the game and make this biome fleshed out.
On the Scale of the biome I'd like it a little small maybe the size of the shores of gold but with an interconnected river system where you could sail your boat through I feel as if the possibilities for this biome would be endless so give me your thoughts and we can discuss. :)
Swamp Lands! (Bayou area)
I think there is a lot of potential for content to be born on the bayou that we already have.
It's an awesome area.
I even think it would be a cool spot for the training grounds I've brought up multiple times in the past.
Have a tally mode that can be used as a substitute to death mode, create opportunity for combat related games and practice in there unrelated to the tall tale and not part of their experience.
Add croc like creatures instead of sharks, add a frankenfish and we have a party.
@wolfmanbush I like the idea of combat related games I would personally like this to be a standard part of adventure mode with its own quest type, and i'd like for you to explain the frankenfish you mentioned

frankenfish is an obscure reference to a terrible monster movie and I love me some terrible monster movies.
frankenfish in regards to relevancy would be a fish that isn't necessarily based on reality but a fantasy inspired swamp predator.
@wolfmanbush indeed a new area would be in need for a new fish but a monster fish??? I mean the fish in game aren't real yet based upon real fish Wrecker=Angler etc. Maybe a fish based on the Gar would be a nice edition but realistically speaking if there were ever a SOTD area for the game containing a new environment i'd like to see cursed fish and cursed sharks exclusively for the SOTD
