I see where you're coming from with this, in that case there needs to be either a 3rd medium of -something- to push us in the right direction or the game has to be better about inspiring action out of the player.

As it stands, not looking at the patch notes or looking at the live letters - I would likely never have discovered the new role quests, the chaotic raids and so on. Logging into the game doesn't really present you with any sign of anything new that has occurred. With how little I go to Tuliyollal - if it was suddenly demolished in a patch cycle - I'd probably not discover it for several months.

An example of a solution that I could think of: have a Newsmoogle or something which can tell the player stuff like "There's shady dealings going on in Wolves Den" or "Wandering Minstrel has returned to Tuliyollal looking to write a new song."
It's a very rudimentary idea but I hope it gives you the jist of what I'm thinking.
