It’s just another stop on Thor’s journey. No character has suffered the kind of loss he has and it’s actually fitting that he did put the fate of the universe on his shoulders and held himself responsible for Thanos winning. Getting depressed, letting himself go, drowning out the guilt with booze, feeling unworthy and relinquishing his kingship are all logical reactions when you think you failed to save trillions.
The handling of this transition is where the problems lie but you can thank Ragnarok for new goofball Thor. The ‘comedy’ has got Hemsworth’s stamp all over it. He’s just riffing most the time now to see what lands and directors are allowing it. The Russos May have wanted broken Thor but had to continue with Taikas bumbling buffoon. But they also gave us comedy Hulk so who knows.

I actually really like the Endgame finale look. He seems completely Viking now and hopefully realises that he’s got a second chance to do something meaningful and doesn’t just reign himself to goofing around space with the GOTG crew. That being said, there’s no better group for a broken god to to find himself with. The healing can begin now and he’ll no doubt get back to a form you find more appealing.
