I wonder why the 2 team mode in XIV is such a complete s*** stomp most of the time compared to WoW battlegrounds, or other games.

I dont know where you get the idea of WoW battlegrounds is not one side stomp, that game is the worst culprit.

For real! WoW battlegrounds are so predictable. You can tell who's going to win from whoever gets the first cap in Warsong Gulch, whoever controls mid first in Eye of the Storm/Temple of Kotmogu, or whoever gets first 3 cap in Arathi Basin. It's the reason why people will /afk and spam "let them win" whenever the enemy team gets a slight lead.

Last I played WoW, Alliance's strategy in all the 40-man BGs was to run to the side to give Horde a clear path to victory, lose as fast as possible, then queue again.
In smaller BGs you'd find occasional people who genuinely tried, but there was a prevalent defeatist attitude thete too, mostly.

One faction was simply expected to always win, and people started playing into it.
