Im so sick of this game and people complaining about it
I'm pretty sure their has been PLENTY of instances in which Blizzard made a dev choice in which people, rightfully so, called into question as to why they made said choice even before they give out an official statement. It's not "dumb as fuck" especially since this kind of stuff has happened time and time again.
Personally i wouldn't have any trouble with him coming back, it makes little enough sense that the manifestation of an aspect of material reality can truly be destroyed without also destroying said aspect of reality.
But that still leaves open the fate of his "soul" or whatever it is that made him him, even if it's just for a temporary stay (the wild gods usually have a temporary stay too after all).
This is a signature of an ailing giant, boundless in pride, wit and strength.
Yet also as humble as health and humor permit.
Furthermore, I consider that Carthage Slam must be destroyed.

Gaming and WoW stuff
This makes no sense lore wise. Remember the whole point of the shadowlands and covenants is to show us that many of the "death magic" powers and abilities we see in the world of the living come from the realm of the dead.
Does anybody remember that whole underlying plot point of the shadowlands?
But here we are folks are now claiming nope, those powers cant be "borrowed" from the shadowlands when that is just the opposite of what they said in the first place. That being that everybody has been using these "borrowed" powers from demons to undead all along to wreck havoc on the mortal realm.
If that is the case then breaking the helm of damnation shouldn't have broken the barrier between the two realms.
Because there should be no powers tied to the shadowlands embedded in the Helm of Damnation in the first place.
That would also mean all that shadowlands armor shouldn't work outside the shadowlands either (why would souls need armor in the first place). And of course Sylvanas shouldn't have been boosted with her anima shadowlands super saiyan powers on Azeroth if that was true as well.
This is just annoying at this point and using lore as justification is a weak excuse.

If this is because of technical hurdles... fine, albeit I expect them to be fixed over the course of Shadowlands.
If it's because of lore, that's totally stupid. Sylvanas was able to use her Jailer-given powers just fine on Azeroth. We will be able to use them in arenas and BGs which are mostly on Azeroth or beyond, and perhaps Timewalking dungeons as well which are all over the place. Hell there's even no precedent for it, the Heart is said to be less powerful outside of Azeroth yet we could use it just on Draenor, Outland or Argus.
It never feels good to lose abilities temporarily, especially when these abilities are supposedly a core part of the player's toolkit and gameplay fantasy in the expansion. They'd better have a damn good reasoning behind this one. It also just feels weird that they just said they would change the Maw because a desolate place with sweet fuck all is no fun in a video game but would then do this.

The internet: where to every action is opposed an unequal overreaction.
Lore-wise we also shouldn't be able to summon any living mounts. It makes no sense that they are also super-special beings that can be in the shadowlands while alive. And if you can summon them, then you shouldn't be able to summon them outside as they are now dead.
While we're at it, let's fix some other stupid things. Why can you cast fire magic underwater? Even if you could due to 'magic', shouldn't it at least be weaker?
They should also fix up a lot of the classes. For someone to be able to be both a shadow and a holy priest at the same time by swapping doesn't really make sense, so remove that at least. Lets not even mention how we shouldn't be able to use Heart of Azeroth outside of Azeroth. We should also get rid of all those silly non-lore-friendly mechanics such as Item level, old raids/bosses that are lore-wise dead, duel spec, different game modes (what even is mythic?).
Oh man, WoW could be such a great game if we made it lore>gameplay like a proper game. I hope this is only the beginning, and I am so glad to see Blizzard going the right thing!
You can still use your heart of azeroth. I don't get why people are upset its trivial content.
When you are on Azeroth you play completly different timeline. In that moment Shadowlands isnt there yet. Cannon is literaly that we are all stuck in Shadowlands and we do not go back on Azeroth for entire expansion. Just becouse there is portal to Azeroith its there for gameplay reasons.

Yep not like we have been storing AP into our neck entire expansion. The heart of Azeroth is just name and power comes from wthingin neck not from Azeroth.
I like how NOW they try to impose lore restrictions
This world don't give us nothing. It be our lot to suffer... and our duty to fight back.
Oh you mean like Arthas? Sylvanas powers have nothing to do with covenant skills. Her skills work compeltly differently.

You are right wse shouldnt and maybe Blizzard realized it? You know its not like they have to go back and change everything abouýt game so players cant point out mistakes from past. Maybe they just relalized that they could bring some of RPG elements back to the game but wont change all the nonrpg gameplay elemtents just so people like you cant bring them up on forums.
