FFXIV is just FFTA from the other perspective

But ironically it's fine for G'raha Tia to do the same thing as the Ascians, right? Fine to wipe out all the current people as if they never existed in order to save the old people from a few hundred years ago, right? The point being made is that we base our moral judgement on the side of the argument that we represent.

If someone can present me with a convincing explanation of how G'raha Tia's actions are different from the Ascians, I'll be happy to accept it. I don't think anyone is disputing the necessity of putting an end to the Ascian machinations - much though I enjoyed the ShB story, I didn't expect us not to kill Hades - but some of us do think the moral hypocrisy is pretty bad. I believe that's the point the OP is making, and that's the point I'm agreeing with him on.
