Obviously if it's finished and it's a bad trailer now it will still be a bad trailer in August (and I doubt it, if there's one thing I still trust SE in is making good trailers, they've always been amazing with trailers).
Also, no one knows at what point was the trailer created, it could have been built around an older build of 2.0 which they didn't want to show off for all anyone but SE knows, this is exactly what I meant by 'quality', because they want something substantial to show along with something that will leave a good enough impression that makes people want the game. Much like the original XIV was built on a barely finished Crystal Tools engine that was clearly not designed for MMOs, so while it was pretty..it had many more problems.

What if they finished the Crystal Tower after the trailer was done for example? Wouldn't it be better to also show off a glimpse of that in the trailer even if it's just a fly through? That would have made for a better trailer overall, but as said we don't know the content but when companies tend to make trailers it's not always of the newest or even final build. Look at GTA V, even the reveal trailer looked pretty good yet it had almost..nothing.
