The heavy armor designs in general are very good.
I have acquired a decent number of health potions just from doing leves, and they can be very useful while leveling.
I can be in multiple LS's.

Pretty much everything everyone else has listed, with the sleeping/dreaming/waking up probably one of my favorite "nice touches."
I have to say my overall favorite is the realistic touch of the world. Motion captured really does the trick in regards to immersion, for me that is.
The emotes, the walking/running, monster behavior, everything. I just love it.
+ Hildebrand :D
+ Whm AF head was a crown and not a ...'hat' like FFXI
+ GSM storyline
- More weather than just rain or shine
- Instead of shutting the game down, it is being redone and has one of the largest teams at SE working on it
- Content being added fairly often during 1.0 despite the coming of 2.0
- Character physics are awesome (I love the Miqo'te tail wag and how characters lean when you turn)
- Shallow water in this game is beautiful (such as the shallow rivers and pools in Black Shroud)
- You can tell that the translators and original writers spend a lot of time on the dialogue for almost every NPC
- Armor is fairly realistic and very nice looking
- Devs seem to listen to what the players actually want rather than what the vocal majority screams about
- Not afraid to cater to both the hardcore and casual players despite massive protests from both sides on the forums ("X IS TOO EASY" and then "X IS TOO HARD" and then "X TAKES TOO LONG" and then "X DOESN'T TAKE LONG ENOUGH!")
- Does not take itself too seriously
- Is not afraid of having some more "adult" content in the game (slutty miqo'te path companion, some of the language used ["whore," "shite," etc.], strippers at the Miner's guild, booze everywhere)
- Hildebrand
- References a lot of pop culture in clever way
- Facial animations (including blinking)
- mob behavior (though I really still mobs that would "follow" you)
- mob size ranges (snurbles to great buffalo!)
- Armour designs (I enjoy the realistic feel)
- Weaponskill animations
- Battle mechanics in 7th Umbral Era storyline fights.
- the main characters!
The pop cultural references and meme references (including the whole my little chocobo gag he put in)
and everything else except for Thancred who must die
Adding your party members to cut scenes is genius. I love that!
Some of the lil touches I love:
The adorable face Lost Lambs make:
