BOTW doesn't lack in story like people often criticize it for it just uses a different type of story telling one that is not direct or push to the player in a mandatory way, on top of the memory quest that gives back story to the game's events you have so much lore in the detail and design of the world that fills in gaps like how the house in Hateno is hinted to have been Link's before he set off to Hyrule Castle or some of the details that this video highlights.
