Obviously anyone would pick both... That's not what they mean when they say gameplay over graphics.

Gameplay is more important in the long run because without good gameplay, you loose subscribers, graphics aren't going to keep them playing.
The point is, the graphics have taken a hit, in order for game play to succeed. Example, displaying more characters on screen, doing more with the environment, etc..

Besides, FFXIV in ARR will still be the leading MMO in graphics on the market, even after its hit. So, you kind of are getting both given the situation.
