I'm sorry, but I'll never understand people that act like SWTOR had this epic level of writing quality. It doesn't. The writing is generally at about the level of how I wrote when I was 15. It's perfectly fine but it's all fairly simple plots and devices. The fun comes out of getting to make some choices and see your character actually DO the thing you wanted them to.

FFXIV's storywriting is much higher level than SWTOR's. However, sometimes it is a lot less fun because of it as the dialogue can be too long and start to drag. Or can be about weird stuff you don't understand or don't care about. I think this expansion's writing is worse than SWTOR's though so I'll give you one expansion. The rest there's no contest.

Depend which storyline you play in SWTOR
I would say Republic smuggler and Imperial agent are the best, better than FFXIV. Bounty Hunter and Sith Lord are quite good either as good as FFXIV HW, the rest are pretty meh like FFXIV SB meh, both Jedi (Knight and Councillor are even worse)
Shadow of Revan is the best expansion story wise, I would weight it over HW. Quit before finishing Knights of the Fallen Empire can’t comment on it.
FFXIV my rating go HW=ShB>ARR>SB, have not finish EW cannot comment
Why I prefer SWTOR story over FFXIV story,
FFXIV choice have no impact on how story go.
Too many “Sad background story to redeem a character.”
Some of the antagonists have a rather weak reason for their actions
FFXIV have a very clear good vs evil, black vs white, feel strongly target toward teenagers

I've played them all, I disagree. The Choices in SWTOR are what, to me, weakens the narrative as they have to either simplify them, or make them overall meaningless. KofFE was about the only one that I felt my previous decisions mattered because it effected what companions I got to keep or get back, although even then it felt unrewarding or good as a story.
