The team wants the game to "feel" a certain way, and a 2.5 second global cooldown fits into that.

Like others have said, there are skill speed and spell speed attributes that drop your cooldown just like most other MMOs. Casting speed and GC is pretty terrible in WoW until you get some haste on your gear closer to endgame. This is nothing new and I honestly don't understand why you're posting about it when there are *so* many other issues that need to be tackled first.
So if the "GC is pretty terrible in WoW" than what does that have to say for FF14 with your logic? What's one worse than terrible? Unacceptable?
