Do you not know what a reboot is

designers take elements from a previous game series and essentially start it over again. There are usually big changes to characters, settings, or the overall story

All I'm trying to say is, instead of changing half of the characters, they should've just picked from the '19MW or picked up from one of the others

That's the entire point of a reboot. Same characters, different storyline.

The main thing I'm trying to figure out is how General Shepard is alive and why doesn't he have an eye patch then

It's not a prequel, either.

Realistically, mw19 could've been considered a prequel since it's just Price and Gaz, but 1. It takes place in 2019, not before 2016. And 2. A completely different story was written for MW22. What you're thinking of is a remaster, where everything stays the same.

It's like put some U.S soldiers in starwars. Why? Both deal with war so let's change the storyline and some characters. That's how I see it as

No one care how you see it. You asked why the story was radically different - it's a reboot.

No. It’s a completely different universe. It has homages to the original Modern Warfare games but they’re completely new characters with the same look as the old characters in a completely new plot. Eyepatch Shepard does not exist in this timeline. It’s a new thing. That’s what a reboot is.
