The alternative isn’t all sunshine and rainbows neither though. From what I heard WoW retail mythic+ raids are insane. Not only does literally everyone have to be 100% on point with many, many different raid mechanics (like stand here, now stand there, no go get this item and place it here, etc) all at once, but every player has to be perfect like that for 10-15 minutes straight during a fight or everyone instantly dies
People say it sucks and it’s stressful. Average players like Asmongold won’t raid anymore because of it. So it’s a delicate line between too easy and too stressful sometimes

I never played WoW. I like the raids in Elder Scrolls Online, it's an action-combat game so the mechanics are a lot more about avoiding damage by moving/blocking/roll dodging than anything super choreographed. Then boss fights are often split up with add phases or part of your group has to enter a portal or something and kill a mini boss. The combat is very fluid too, with only 10 abilities you use a dynamic rotation rather than memorizing a long static sequence. The game is still very challenging, like only a handful of groups in the world have the trifecta (hard mode, no death, speed run) of the latest raid released in June.
This is what it looks like:
