Well, a little bit on my end:
Hunts have me interested, I want to try them out but I'm afraid it'll be offset by the fact that I need to get my Atma/Animus weapons. Still, any alternative to grinding at Coil will be quite welcome. (We're getting past Twintania's Divebombs now, but we're not quite to the point where we're finishing the Snake before the big hit.)
Crystal Tower's announcement of containing Oils and Sands, has me absolutely relieved. It's likely going to be rare and hotly contested, but a chance at getting those items that does not involve pushing into Coil 8 is a relief. However, thanks to vanity. I do kinda want to see what sort of other gear drops from Crystal Tower. (Hopefuly some good lucking Vanity Gear.)
Personally, when it comes to the new dungeons, I am kind of excited. So far they've proven that they can make the Hardmode Versions vastly different in concept and scope than what was seen in the originals (Loved Halitali Hard), so I am interested in seeing how they have changed. This time around, it's actually the new dungeon that feels a touch lackluster to me. Reason being: We've been to La Noscea already a few times. I really thought Thanalan would get a little more love with new dungeons this time around. But, I'll give this Island zone a shot, at least it looks like a partially open area.
Ramuh, well, that's a moot point, can't get past Titan Extreme, means I won't be doing the Ramuh Extreme fight anytime soon. Echo does nothing vs lag and 1 hit kills, and there are so many bloody one hit kill mechanics in that fight it's mind boggling.
And as a Roleplayer? New poses are quite nice.
So yeah, even without the juicy bits, there's some things to look forward to.
