When choosing your starting location, you should be informed how difficult the location is. An area with lots of vegetation, a stream, and calm wildlife would be easy, but if it had no vegetation no water and sinister wildlife would be difficult.
Verbal Abuse?

It already has difficulty messages for difficult areas like aquifers and for oceans.

Still, the fact that biomes overlap and every region is different makes it hard to give a specific difficulty number. There can in fact be a HFS in a serene area, and goblins don't really care if you are in a serene area or not. Really though, the evilness and savagery indicators are really good difficulty indicators in general.

In fact, you might even get carp in a serene area, know what I'm saying.

This "diff. level idea" has been brought up more times already. 
I don't know....perhaps this would be a helpful feature for newbies...other than that, it's good for nothing.

I think the current warnings about lack of freshwater/stone/etc. are one of the few places where the game actually does a good job of helping newbies out.  Some additional warnings about the lack of trees or likely presence of really mean creatures might be warranted, I guess.

Shouldn't common sense prevail here... I mean if you pick the proverbial haunted glacier with and aquifer under it, that's exactly what you're getting... (ie- no trees, no sand, no 'easy' water, plenty of horror, and extremes of temperature.) The consequences of that should be somewhat apparent.
