WoW and FFXIV have such different lore it feels unfair to compare the two of them.
Another thing to consider is with WoWs gameplay, you don't get the full details unless you read the books. WoWs lore is in depth, huge and beautiful - but if you only ever play the game, you'd never know any of that. It's very much NOT like FFXIV in that way. Where FFXIV plays the story out for you to watch as you play, WoW hopes its playerbase will read the books that come along with the game in order to fill in the blanks. :3
The lore is much better in WoW, but require many different medias to understand, like how Dark Souls lore is deep and not only in the games.
