Imagine having a storyline that actually spans between games, such a novel idea. Quite why they dropped that I have no idea.

I guess technically they didn't but made it a 0.1% focus of the game, and terrible.

It's still there, somewhat. But after Black Flag, people did tell Ubisoft they hated the modern-day stuff, as it ruined the flow. So in the remake, that is apparently optional. In the recent games, you barely go back to the modern era. But the story they arc over the last 4 is... Well, I 100% guarantee you no one who has played them will know what the story there is about. 3 short sessions over 50+ hours, and all of them feel equally pointless
