I actually love the mist. I like the atmosphere, and had no issues with it. I like the way it slowly retreats from wisplight and fills back in when you leave.

The devergr (dwarves are cool). I felt sorry about killing the few I had to in order to get extractors. They really get the short end of the stick. Seeker soldiers and gjalls can decimate and ruin their bases. They're slowly getting wrecked across the map. I actually stop and help them fight the other mobs now.

The new weapons you get when you finally unlock the black forge... well... they are worth the wait. They really really really really really are. I made the new mistlands polearm last night and I haven't laughed so hard in ages. Yes, thor _would_ approve of it. The sword, the axe, the bow, all have been worth the wait and work.
