Welcome to p99/Everquest!
I wouldn't say the game is inaccessible - so much as it doesn't hold your hand or guide you. I do recommend some reading though. Really, it comes down to what your definition of fun long term is - are you about discovery or do you like to have a game plan?
Most of the game is, at this point, pretty thoroughly documented between the forums, wiki, and other sites, and the community can be pretty good with new players so you could always do some reading on wherever you'd like to hunt, your class, and whatever suits your fancy. Alternatively, discovery is part of the magic. At least, I think a lot of people here would agree. It's also part of the headache. I think a lot of people would agree on that too.
Really, that's where your choice starts beyond just playing.
