As I've linked into a previous 2.5 thread,
Patch 2.5's main scenario alone is full of content
Q/A Text
Q Will the Main Scenario to be added to Part 2 be even longer than the one on Part 1?
A About 2/3rds of the Main Scenario planned for Patch 2.5 were selected to be released with Part 1, but since the Scenario grew a lot after the cutting point was decided, Part 2 will end up being even larger.
Q I suppose it's best to not compare it with the Main Scenarios we have seen in the patches so far.
A Indeed. I played through the content we have for Part 2's Main Scenario from start to finish, and despite ignoring all the other content, it still took me quite a long time to finish. We also have a lot of cutscenes and voiced scenes, so the volume is quite large.
Q So the Main Scenario will be the focus of Patch 2.5 Part 2, right?
A We want Part 2 to be the grand finale for the "Realm Reborn Chapter" of the story. I can't go into more details, but players will also be able to take part in the Battle of Ishgard, which will be a major part of the Main Scenario. Also, I want to work on fixing the little things that our fans complain about before the release of Heavensward, so we will be releasing hotfixes as usual.
Q I'm curious about the details of this Battle of Ishgard.
A I will be able to talk about it after we release the patch.
Nevermind the fact that the main story quests in previous patches had you going through the stupidest lines ever. Walk through sylphland infested area here. Use X on B mob/item. Travel from Gridania to Uldah and back. Travel through Coerthas without many places to teleport here and here. Most of the time spent in those quests were spent doing stupid travel and not a lot of meat in them.
