Part of your post is based on your own opinion, but I will breeze past that. Most people on these forums agree that FFXIV was rushed to release. With that said, the game is still very much in a DEVELOPMENT phase. Therefore the "update schedule" is far different for this game than for MMOs that are ready on release. SE is not just updating content, they are still developing the game which accounts for their seemingly painfully slow process.
