Everyone who created the lore to the game is gone. I mean look at Disney post Walt. Each year that goes by more and more of the “Warm fuzziez” Walt created dissipates. This is what happens in any company when people are put in charge that dont understand or share the founder (lore creators) views. More so in things like WoW because new writers always want to “change it up and make it their own”. Instead of just continuing the original writers vision and carrying the original story instead of making their own.
Things may somewhat change with Metzen back but only time will tell. Blizzcon will be very telling for the future of wow.

You can safely ignore ol’ Ard. He doesn’t actually know much about anything.
Disclaimer - I am not in any way trying to force you to ignore anyone, nor am I attempting to influence you to make that choice. I’m just pointing out that if you do choose to ignore him, you won’t likely notice the absence.
