No, everything is the same until you start a New Game+. Everything is still normal, you keep your same character and Main Pawn (though you get a chance to change your main pawn's appearance if you want, but its default form will be whatever you made it). I think they put the NG+ option there so you can go back to normal. You can always go to Bitterblack Isle whenever you want if you're looking for a challenge still, so it all works out. No need to rush the "Final Battle".
