I think you're confusing what milking really is.
Games like GH and Rock Band are series that have been milked. You know why? They gaps where a new title is released are just to small. As well there is little to no innovation or improvement since the last entry. Final Fantasy while having 14 main entry titles can not be classified as a milked series because each title is different from the other, with new characters, stories and gameplay elements. Really Square could have released Final Fantasy X under the title of Spira: Dawn of the new world and people wouldn't have even blinked or have said that this was a ripoff or sequel to Final Fantasy IX and you wanna know why?
Different characters, themes, gameplay elements, atmosphere, setting. Each game in the Final Fantasy universe could have been released as a completely different game and no one would have been the wiser. NOW is there milking of specific Final Fantasies? Yes. FF7 was recently milked in so many different ways, because it seemed like Square decided to try and beat a dead horse with a stick. It wouldn't have been so bad if they just released Crisis Core and possibly Advent Children (You know a Sequel and Prequel route) but they added in Before Crisis, Advent Children Complete, Dirge of Cerberus in addition to the aforementioned titles. NOW THATS MILKING

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.
Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi
