i mean that could be one way of looking at it i don't see any other reason on holding off the video if it not for TGS or the EU version of E3
To everyone, yep FFXIV will not be at E3, considering this
Well, the public release of version 2.0 is set to kickoff with this year’s E3 in Los Angeles. We also plan to unveil a brand new promotion site for version 2.0 soon after E3 ends.
Also:

But during our most recent global PR planning meeting, we came to the conclusion that the most effective way to introduce version 2.0 to the world would be with a flood of new material rather than just a trickle.
A trailer is just something to go wow look at that, 99% of the time trailers do not even use in game footage, you all asked for gameplay and didn't care about a CGI trailer, it seems like thats what you are getting, poor Yoshi-P is damned if he does and damned if he doesn't with you guys.
