Animal rigs in Rigify, Principled BSDF shader, Cycles denoiser, improved Alembic support are essential additions. Especially animal rigs, as far as I know, are unique of their kind.
Ok I remembered that there are also CAT rigs in 3ds max. And in many cases they are superior (there is no rig for hexapod and insects in blender). But in all cases only these two applications have animal rigs.
