I feel like it kinda depends. If it's too hard due solely to a skill issue, an easy game is worse. But if a hard game is hard because of stupid shit, like game design, cheap one hit mechanics, unseen or unforeseen traps or pitfalls, shit you can't prepare for, damage sponges, or any other number of ancillary factors not directly related to player skill, then I'd say a hard game is worse.

Too easy can be very boring but sometimes can be a little zen.

Too hard depends on the definition. Dark Souls is hard but rewarding. NES TMNT and SNES Lion King are frustrating bullshit.

Too hard because it will kill progression.
Too easy at least you finish the game.

Too hard no contest. Easy can still be fun, hard is not.
These.

Games like Umihara Kawase and Infernax are rightfully hard and beatable.

Games like Mario Pinball Land and Myastere -Ruins of Deazniff- are "hard" for the wrong reasons.
