5e needs more feats and the embargo against new classes greatly limits where the game can actually go.

Also voted equipment as the best book of any edition has always been the equivalent of the Arms and Equipment Guide.

I'm a sucker for subclasses (and I'm mainly a DM!)
I also voted spells and rules variants/additions.
I almost voted Monsters/NPCs but I currently have more than enough monster books. Of course, if I'm being honest, as soon as a new shiny one comes out...

I picked Species (Races), Subclasses, and Monsters/ NPC's.
I put monsters in bold print because I have always liked seeing what kind of monsters the RPG companies came up with, be they an adaptation of some monster in RL mythology or something from the 'twisted'
minds of the RPG design staff. Pathfinder 1st edition's 6 bestiaries are full of the former, for instance. 
Subclasses are a neat way to explore the various aspects or niches of a particular class.
The number of species you can play as in a RPG is a bit of a Goldilocks issue. At the same time, however, they do offer you another opportunity to be something else for a little while.

I've got three sets of answers to this question. What I like as a player, what I like as a DM, and what I like to read for reading's sake (i.e. entertainment).
I guess I'll answer as a player, because that's what I do the most right now.

3e's Arms and Equipment Guide, the best D&D book printed, and 4e's Adventurer's Vault 1 & 2 and Mordenkainen's Emporium.
