Money.
I doubt the majority of this trash is produced because of someone's 'vision'. A production company or group of investors proposes: can we invest X and expect a return of X(2) + (any additional). If that answer is yes, they contract a group of developers who work probably very little.. for little money, and release unfinished, unpolished and widely untested content.
For the developers it's just a job. For the production company, it's just money. In the end, they don't care about their reputation for releasing trash because it's often not the same developers that released their former trash. They make their X(2) and move on to the next one. This leaves the developers looking incompetent and players raging because the games suck and are little more than a money funnel for winning.
That's my opinion.

Their handling of STO pretty much shows this. Cryptic bangs out mmo's faster than I've ever seen. Terrible ones, too :P
