As far as the activity levels in GW2 vs XIV, I think one of the things that works in GW2's favor is that your level will scale down to match whatever zone you're in, so you can still get XP and rewards, or play with friends, or just go explore things you missed previously and it's still beneficial for you.
Going between WoW, FFXIV, and GW2, for me I found FFXIV is the one that hits my sweet spot. WoW either doesn't scale anything down at all, or scales it up at certain points where leveling actually makes you weaker. GW2 scales everything, which actually irks me sometimes because if I'm going through an old area for exploration, vistas, etc., I just want to breeze through. FFXIV lets you breeze through the zones, but if you actually want to do things like FATES, you level sync for it to match the zone. I find it's a nice balance for me.
