Is Diablo 3's release this summer going to seriously hurt our population?

I hate people who bitch about WoW being easy as if 1) the entire game is easy and 2) any other MMO is any harder and 3) they could faceroll WoW heroics or HMs without overgearing and knowing the fights ahead of time and being in vent with a handful of RL friends.

1) Compared to EQ, yes there were a number of things that were easier. For instance no real death penalties, no exp loss, rested experience, solo anything your level or above including elites with relative ease, little to no downtime.

2) ^

3) And yet you can go into Heroics and Raids with people that "know the fight", have vent, and every add on they need to beat the encounter and you can still wipe.

I like both games, but I think EQ is more challenging.
