For me, I think it'll open up Idyllshire to the possibility of easy public RP, assuming people want to roleplay there. I didn't want to touch Mor Dhona in the 2.0 series because it was the de-facto endgame area outside of BCoB entrances.
Now? Revenant's Toll is basically just as viable as all the other not-Ul'dah cities. Which is to say one can find RPers there, but nobody really uses it. Often. Or if they're like me, their primary character found some IC reason to not want to go where all the OOC people hung out. And now it's internalized. I keep thinking of ways around it, but it's not working out, personally.
With any luck, we'll see an increase of RP in Idyllshire. There's goblins, fancy buildings, that fancy bar I always see empty, the gardens, and more! It's really a pretty area and there's plenty of surrounding zones for researchers.
Come Stormblood, the new areas will likely depend on whether Square Enix decides to implement seating, if it's anything like Ishgard. Since this is going to be their first single-zone full city since 1.0, I'm excited to see how they're going to pack in the details without overloading the server it's on. It's some odd form of please prove my pessimistic computer science nerd views wrong. We got a sample in the benchmark and I'm hoping the rest will be just as nice.
