I think the obvious selling point would be aviaries and aquariums. I'm sure we'd get at least one or the other from the get-go (like PC2 did with waterslides). My guess would be flying birds, just because I feel like those have been more widely requested, but I could see them adding aquariums and other aquatic animals in a dlc soon after.
I have faith in Frontier and would like to think that no matter what they come up with, it's not going to be just a cash-grab or gimmick. Of course I'd rather not repay for the same dlc animals, but ultimately I'm more annoyed with waiting than paying up. I'd rather pay extra to get them immediately than have to wait or not get them at all.
Generally though, I'm less concerned with the animal roster and more with gameplay. I feel like the management options could be heavily improved from PZ1. The seasons are all over the place, the flow of time needs to be adjusted, and I feel like franchise mode could be improved by making it more connected, competitive, or ideally, collaborative. @RightWhale mentioned newsletters, which I think is a great idea. In general, even though I know we can obviously share our zoos and chat about them on these forums, I wish there was a way to browse other people's stuff within the game. I just think it would be cool if you could build a reputation for your zoo, whether it be a good or a bad one. Currently the only glimpses we get of other people's zoos are the names of them on the animals being sold and to be honest, they're absolutely forgettable. Especially since Frontier releases animals to the market so regularly that it barely matters what other people are putting out there.
