Hear, hear. It's not that CRs are fun, it's that CRs make staying alive more fun! Dungeon-crawling needs the threat of a tough CR to keep you on the edge of your seat.

That's why WoW is blah and EQ Classic is fun.
It's also precisely why EVE Online was such an exciting game, even in places that were considered "safe" you never were, and could get suicide attacked and lose everything on you at any given time. You don't try as hard when you don't have to try as hard, your heart doesn't start beating faster as your doom approaches unless you actually feel you have something to lose.
