Why did some EQ players dislike WoW?

1. Because it’s pve content was on rails

2. Because it’s pve content outside of raids was far too easy

3. Because the lack of significant consequences for dying removed a lot of excitement and sense of danger, especially in dungeons

Those are probably the big 3, if I had to pick. That being said, I liked EQ but loved WoW, but mostly WoW for the pvp

This was my experience. I remember being bugged by how easy it was to figure out quests. Felt like I was being spoon fed. It felt like a watered down version of EQ to me. I didn't play it for long, but my brother was into it and played for a while. To each their own I guess.
