I think you really shortchanged yourself there.

I mostly agree - a new playthrough should be with a new character because Trolls etc should always scare the hell out of you the first time you meet one. Though I understand why some people want a New Game Plus-like experience.

Even moreso than having that experience, there are just lots of new things added that you'd only see earlier in the progression. New types of foods, upgrades, enemies, equipment, etc. Late game hasn't changed much, basically tar as Krith said.

If you time it right, the mountain update will hit by the time you're ready for mountains on a fresh start. That's also an update that isn't gonna do much for someone already in the Plains.
