I keep seeing people act like they know how hard Everquest was. You never raided Gates of Discord at 65. You know nothing.

Exactly. Tacvi holds probably 3 of the top 5 hardest boss fights for the era. OMM in Anguish is one of those other top 4. AoW likely rounds out the top 5, though I wasn't raiding that content during velious era, so it's hard to say. TSS had some fights that were so ridiculous that they had to be nerfed after the top guild beat them, because nobody else was going to do it until the level cap went up with a future expansion. In every other MMO I've seen, the new content is beaten quickly by several dozen guilds, and upwards of 100 have it beat before the next expansion.
So the raid content is very difficult in EQ compared to other games. The rest of the game isn't a cakewalk either. Most games give you a free month of playtime when you buy the game, and it doesn't take much to get max level in that month. The gear is also pretty easy to come by in those games.
