No giant trees, no mist really... just patchy areas of grass, a few enemies, and some elevated heights. I've seen the gameplay for mistlands and I know there should be more than this.... from what I've seen it seems that starting a new world will refresh it but I don't wanna lose allmy progress/building/sacrifices/exploration in mt current world. Has anyone else had this problem and do they know a solution so I don't have to start over from scratch?

Since world renders even further than you can observe, you need to sail in the area never "seen" before to ensure it wasn't rendered before.
