I liked the old mountains better. See:

The only things I disliked in the old tileset was that hills were a bit
too subdued and rivers looked a bit low-res.

I don't like the new hills and mountains much. While making the mountains
a bit darker was probably a good idea, I think the hills should be rounder,
the mountains a bit lighter and more pointy.
