as for expectations..

same as you would get from fanfests 1 and 2 in a normal expac cycle. and a live letter for 4.5 part 1. Same as always.
While I agree with you that wanting PS4 support dropped is silly at this stage, you're wrong about the graphical update, there're prettier games with lower requirements, it's more a combination of the engine as is so often mentioned and simply when they chose to simplify the graphics for 2.0 they didn't make high textures and lower them, they just made low textures, it's why they can't give the converted "HD texture pack" as there are no HD textures to give.
However, they've said at some point the engine would need to get looked at and that would be when the graphics and character creator and other core systems would get a pass too, as it just made sense. So that's the deciding factor, at what point they feel it's time to make those evaluations.
