How do logs matter more than metrics? it's a meaningless conclusion unless we're talking about offline applications

They are different things for different purposes.

When I need to observe or be aware of abnormalities, I need metrics.

When I need to get into the details and the informational context, I need logs.

live services(webapi, gaming, etc) can not work without anyone of them

From logs you can derive the metrics

    agreed! or these days just aggregate them directly as if they were metrics
