Depends on how the themes and moral dilemmas are presented. FFX handles its criticisms of religion and racial divisions well, and it does not feel like you are being straight up preached to when you play that game. FFXIV however has been failing at this. Whenever Alphinaud opens his mouth I feel like I'm about to be lectured on the virtues of democracy for the 99th time. The message has gotten stale and the method of its delivery has only become more and more blunt.

Also, apparently this merely one massive troll thread according to Zepla as of her recent stream which I checked out of curiosity today. Wouldn't be the first time recently that people disagreeing with each other has been equated to the other side lying or trolling.
