That’s how I play EQ. As someone who despised dying and having to beg free corpse run TP’s from dial a beg, I would almost never venture into the dangerous areas and dungeons of the game
But many players did. It was common for players of my class to do very dangerous and technical solo runs of many dungeons. And even with grouping you would get scenarios of either an over-pull/train, or a group trying to make do with a far from ideal makeup
These sorts of scenarios created nail-biting excitement, something I knew I would never personally get from WoW unless doing PvP
If we are using “easy” as a factor of relaxing, then WoW’s pve is 5x easier than EQ’s. Every class in the game could ignore every quest and easily solo even con mobs with at most only a 20 second break to eat/drink between pulls all the way to max level in classic WoW
