Honestly I got the feeling FF14 is out to become the first MMORPG that is completely destroyed by only technical issues, not gameplay issues. That is, people cry about lag or similar technical issue in every MMORPG in existence, but I don't think you'll ever go back and say, "Remember that MMORPG? It failed because it was too laggy". But FF14 is doing a very good job to become the first one.
