>but I'm sure even at higher levels you still wouldn't have to deal with the parts of the lore of that sucks.
Exactly. I can easily give you high level plots about Liches, Dragons, Demon Lords, Old God Fuckery and other high end shit without ever needing to touch WoD of Shadowlands even once.

>let's say you didnt like WoD existing or some event in BFA
I mean, most of that simply is irrelevant by now for the fact that WoD happened 13 years ago and BFA happened 10 years ago when you set your game in the current timeline.

You need to actively, deliberatly go out of your way as a GM or player to ask "ayo, what happened in that one particular thing a decade ago? I know it aint relevant in any way, shape or form, i fuck i want to pull this old stuff back into the light right fucking now."

And if you´re at that point in your game, you TRULY only have yourself to blame
