This is what the long development time does to the players. We all want this patch to be stock-full of content because of the amount of time it's been in the works.

They've already hyped this patch more than anything so far but based on their info I think we can expect a couple of company related quests like in the first company quest- patch and then wait another 2 months for the next bits to trickle in.

A smart player would just put XIV on hold until patch 1.3 but I happen to be on my vacation and just can't help checking out how this thing is going to turn out.

I try too keep my expectations low but they've been working on this patch forever. If it really is just a battle system tweak (I wouldn't call automating one step a complete overhaul btw) and few dungeons I know I'll be a bit disappointed because I keep hoping for them to surprise me somehow. Given their track record of much hype for nothing I'd say a wise player would know better by know than to expect them to walk the walk.
