The mist is bad, agree, but I could live with that. What is killing the experience for me is the landscape. Navigating through there is just annoying. Frustrating climbs everywhere, worse than the mountains. At least you could walk in the mountains after the initial climb...

Every area posed a challenge on how to build a small fortress as supply point. In mistlands I don't even want to. You have those airships bombing your base as soon as you start. It's just babysitting and not a pleasant experience for me.
