A lot of the very old expansions didn't have much story attached to them. I would agree that personally I prefer a little progression at a time to the 'Empyrean Age' model of a giant jump during the DT.

I loved their progressive breaking news when servers were down. I am sad they do not do it anymore, it was awesome to see more breaking news every 5 minutes.

This.

Regardless of some of the PF twists Empyrean Age was by far the best implemented 'launch' they had world-building fiction wise.   I was on the edge of my seat refreshing the news feed every few minutes, it was info-dump heaven.  Granted we didn't get to see much of what was going on but imagination still a powerful thing, especially with 'breaking news' constantly coming in.

I loved Apocrypha even more. Dont know for you but without all the things we do not like with Empyrean Age I was like a child watching the news coming from Seylin, waiting for the obvious dreadful end to come.

And here I thought I was the only one who had 9/11 flashbacks during the Seyllin event.

Nope. Trinity didn't even get itself a Chronicle. This expansion got Chronicles pulled out of retirement.
