The problem with WoW is that on top of the long patch delay, it also has terrible systems for its endgame progression (ignoring any exterior events that may have also driven people away) that people had been begging for the developers to fix for the entirety of the expansion only to be met with indifference, and now they are only fixing some of the things people wanted fixed. FFXIV's progression isn't nearly as despised as that, and the devs on the whole show more receptivity to player feedback, which has earned much more player trust. Yes this delay will have hurt that trust, but not as irrepairably as the WoW team has with their players.
