Imagine if instead of the anti-climatic ending we had.
We actually did something unexpected, like using Sargeras’s own sword agaisnt N’Zoth. The anchor points would actually open up a portal in Nyalotha in which we use the engine’s power and our own azerite to lift the sword and drop it on N’Zoth.
How cool would that cinematic would had been?
It’s literally the same result, N’Zoth dies, but we don’t leave a plot hole like the sword being forgotten.
And as we close leave the sword there, maybe there is a hint that N’Zoth is actually absorbed into the sword instead becoming it’s new jail.

Except the sword is depowered. And plugging the planets stab wound. Plus would it be better then when the titans ripped an old god out?
Us laser cuting him out leaves less damage to azeroth.
However cheesy and copycat it all is. Cough dbz kamehameha spirit bomb cough lord of the rings saron cough …
Sealing him in the xelateth dagger and locking it away would have been better. Or if azeroths titan hatched used the purified sword and killed nzoth alongside us.

oh how cute, and how the hell do you think someone can actually teleport something this big in nzoth…actually no, we dont need another stab on the planet in the process
Beaming the sword as a kinetic impact into Nyalotha would actually have been pretty epic. Since they do a two-expansion gap for stuff, I assume the sword will have a purpose come 10.0, and the red star that was Antorus is probably going to come up during Shadowlands at some point.
You are actually questioning the hows? Idk if you know this, but the writers can write whatever they want and puff “magic” happened.
I mean if we could teleport the sword to prevents all then azeroth woons pretty sure we would have.
Maybe we can use all of Magister Umbrics energy to do so, unfortunately killing him in the process.
we should’ve hired goblin and gnome engineers to chop slice explode or otherwise shatter the sword up and use the fragments to craft new gear/weapons I mean the freakin thing is 500 miles tall that would supply enough raw material to not only arm every hero from azeroth to both MU and AU draenor we could also fortify every horde/alliance town,capital and outpost on azeroth and still have plenty to rebuild outland into a fully functional planet

Expansion after shadowlands or two will be the return of illisargeras, and he wants his sword.
Sargeras sword is a message to Azeroth: i’ll be back!
It was also a tipping point: we focus on cleansing and healing Azeroth.
Azeroth will become a titan and get married with Sargeras.
Happy ending… sniff.
Blast N’zoth with Azerite… have him set the last vision up (since the patch is called VISIONS of N’zoth). And going into pre-patch we would have Azeroth blacked out and have all eyes opened for the start of a Black Empire Expansion.
But a’las… it’s chasing Sylvanas into the Shadowlands. sigh
We shoulda seduced him instead
He clearly has some interest in some dom/sub stuff

Even though Azeroth is “bleeding” from the sword wound, it is still a planet. Removing the sword likely isn’t going to cause the planet to just gush blueberry lemonade blood and kill us all.
It would have been a waaaaay cooler cinematic to just see N’zoth look up with all of his stupid eyeballs to see me (the hero, of course) straddling Sargeras’ sword like a cowboy and yeehaw’ing it right into his stupid face before being safely teleported away by MOTHER so I could slow-walk away from the ginormous dust cloud and collapsing Old God carapace.
Just because a story element isn’t resolved in your expectation of time doesn’t mean it has been forgotten.
I like the way you think. After we take off the part above ground, we can just cover the part still in the ground with some sand and call it a day. It’ll be fiiiiiiine. Probably.
pour a little legion fel lava on it and grow our very own baby titan 
thats what i said…but what i mean by that is very simple, its too bull* to happen, if we can somehow teleport something this big to hit nzoth then wow is becoming dbz levels of power which is unnaceptable
Still a better love story then twilight

Did… did you miss the N’zoth death “cinematic”? The PC kamehamehas squidface.
We have passed DBZ levels. Those are behind us now.
