How is anyone fine with the 4-month patch delivery schedule?

Compared to other MMO's and their content droughts? FFXIV seems to be the more consistent with its patch releases that justify a sub (which is needed to keep an online game going without resorting to numerous amounts of micro-transactions and pay 2 win models). So its not laughable for people to sub and unsub when they know content will be coming anyway. Also maybe I'm one of the few that does this but...I dont play this game every day. In fact I go a week or 2 without playing to do something else to avoid burnout, but I still keep my sub going for the off chance I want to play the game. I figure this is how others usually play MMOs without making it their 2nd job.

I only play this game for a few months a year. I keep my sub going for the forums, and the house I got nowadays. However, I do not stop playing the game for so long because I want to - most of the time (I did get burn out last year from the relic grind) - but because I simply have nothing I want to do. I probably take more breaks from this game than many people here, funnily enough.
