Of course. Nobody said people are incapable of learning how to make video games. But in this scenario the human is learning how to become a veteran game developer. That is what allows them to build Everquest. You don't need AI to learn how to make video games.
Ai fits into this scenario because in the videos OP posted, someone with ZERO experience making games, managed to build a functioning doom executable.

Ai helped him write code he didnt know how to write. Ai helped tell him where to put stuff he didn't know where to put it. Ai tells you create accounts, and register to download all the programs you need to build something.

I am not sure where AI comes into this scenario.
This is where AI comes into the equation:

You could sit down with Chat GPT right now and say:

Hi, Im a total newbie, and have never made a game before. i want to make everquest, like from 1999!

Can you help me, step by step, starting from TOTAL scratch, build everquest? Create an outline that we will follow, step by step to build a functional everquest clone.

I will need help to learn how to do every step.

And as you work, through each step, asking AI what to do, and how to do it. You will, by the end of a year or 2, have a fully functional everquest style game, as a newbie (presuming you were doing this in your downtime).
