Another huge impact might be the Soul Stone.

There have been many rumors and theories that the Soul Stone will appear in Thor Ragnarok. The Soul Stone is the last of the Infinity Stones to be introduced.

There is also a rumor that Loki gives Thanos the Soul Stone at the end of the movie. Thus Thor: Ragnarok would set the events of Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers 4 in motion, which might include Thanos wiping out half of the life in the universe.
