I've said it a few times since it has been released, but it baffles me that the devs spent a year working on this biome to cover it in the mist. I really can't imagine a group of people, sitting around a table, and all agreeing that "yeah this is great. Let's design the most aesthetically pleasing biome and then make it impossible to look at!" And then, of course, the follow up meeting: "and you know what would be even better? You know this whole broken mechanic we have where players can't hit stuff that's slightly above or below them? Let's botch the terrain in Mistlands to highlight even more this broken mechanic!". Who OK-ed these things?

The mistlands is not even hard, it's just painful and tedious.

I won't even go into how I really dislike the introduction of magic (it's a personal preference, it's completely subjective contrary to the poor design of the biome) or how unbalanced the progression is (others have put it perfectly: "you're given the tools to beat mistlands once you've beaten mistlands").
This 100%. I could play the other biomes all day long but Mistlands no thanks. It sucks and it is ugly thanks to that awful mist. I don´t even want to fight the queen and her 1 million hitpoints by chipping away on her for an hour just to get nothing from it. Almost two years waiting for a bunch of rocks , some oversized cockroaches and mist. I´m very disappointed tbh.
