I actually think August update will be great. I haven't been in FFXI since May but I just returned a few days ago just for Aug update. The reason being is for new story. Story alone always gets me excited for any update. Although if story content isn't your thing and you just want improvements on game stuff, then the stat ailments and buff display is something I always wanted the game to have for years. FFXIV has it, and even before FFXIV came out I wish it was added in FFXI. It'll definitely help out healers and support roles being able to see these.
