It may be a bit cliche, but zwift can be whatever you want it to be. You can race (and they are hard), you can do training plans (ftp, distance etc), social rides (the events calendar is full of meet-ups), you can ride in a group with a pace rider (various speeds depending on what you want) or you can ride on your lonesome.
With only a few exceptions if you are on a road bike with a smart trainer then all the only difference between all the routes is the image on the screen. Some trainers (Tacx Neo for example) provide some real road feedback which I assume means if you’re going over a virtual wooden bridge the trainer does something to replicated that. For most of us it just adds a little resistance.
