C# and Java may look similar, but they have drastically different ecosystems. C# can evolve much faster because Microsoft can drop their support of older versions and make them practically inviable. MS customers are used to the cycle and have learned to expect it. The large corporations that adopt Java, on the other hand, don't expect and don't want the language to change. They have hundreds of millions of dollars invested in code, and they won't let any vendor tell them it's obsolete.
