Look at this.
What's so special about it? There's not a single item there, it's all landscaping. It's a work in progress of course. I need to find a better texture for the hilltops (probably grassy - they aren't that high), the riverbanks are too steep and there will be some plants and rocks and such eventually. But it should still illustrate how much good terraforming can add to a scene. And it comes at no performance cost - in fact the flatter the ground is, the laggier it gets.
There's so much I should have said about terraforming, both the principles for good landscape shapes and practical ways to do it, but time is short and for now I just to leave you with this picture as some food for thought.
Except, I stumbled across this video by WASD20. It lists some of the most fundamental principles for creating a credible landscape and is well worth watching.
