Does anyone actually think EQ is harder than WoW from a mechanics standpoint? No. Not even close. I would say P99 raiding is far more about preparation, game / zone knowledge, and truly dedicated (to the point of mental illness) leadership.
Its just a different flavor. I had never played EQ before I started P99 a bit over three years ago. I had been done with WoW for a while, had my "successes" in the high end raid scene, and found the community and experiences here to be refreshing. It reminded me of my old Asheron's Call days where you actually had to form relationships with people on the server instead of just entering a queue and not having to communicate with anyone.
WoW has become a homogenized abomination that caters to the snowflake generation. Sure, the upper echelon / bleeding edge mythic raiding is challenging...but the rest of the game is severely watered down nonsense. It has zero appeal to me as an older gamer.
I don't necessarily get off on my games being uber hard anymore. We're not 17 years old with amazing reflexes and nearly unlimited hours to practice / perfect our skills. I've boiled myself down to ARAMs (LoL) and casual P99 these days. I quite enjoy that in my limited time I have in front of the computer.
We're all shitters for playing video games in the first place.

I've had a hard time getting back into the game myself for the same reasons you outlined. I do go back every expansion just to see what is going on but that's about it.

Everquest isn’t hard because of the PVE. Everquest is hard because of the other players, and that’s what wow doesn’t have.

I dont know, the average player is pretty bad in every video game.

Why even argue about difficulty?
P99 > WoW, easily and that's an undisputed fact.
If you disagree, get Thrall. I'll kick his ass all over my front lawn.

I would but the last time I played we didn't know where Thrall went.

I'm only trying to help people find the peace that you have found. They'll thank me one day.
