Did you... did you at least comprehend what I wrote?

1. Yeah. Suprise! It's something that's missing in moders games because ad campaigns give everything away. 

2. It's not needed the same way the whole Xehanort story is not needed in Kingdom Hearts. It could be just about Disney and FF characters having random adventures with random villains. 

3. Who told you the original plan was not to have the Animus? They came up with it doring early discussions about what this new franchise would be all about.

4. The Animus IS the focus. The lack of focus IS the focus. We're supposed to explore all of those lives and learn their secrets. And if you played all main series games you should have no problems with understanding first Civ. I recently replayed all AC games and there's a TON of foreshadowing about Juno. And the ending wasn't awful. It may have been a bit too abrupt but that's how every ending in AC works.

5. But that's just it! Such a contrast is the whole idea of AC. As I said - you don't like it - FINE. But don't act like a smartass and don't talk big like your simpler premise in superior.
