Felt the void since Kishimoto started the Shippuden series. :(
The storyline of Naruto (first one) purely made me read it and watch it.
But, since in Shippuden the storyline got all over the place... idk anymore...
The current artist of Boruto did say that since it's derived from Naruto, it's inevitable for it not to mention the background of Naruto generation. Although it's focused on the next generation, you'll still get to see more of the orig characters... Probably more of Sasuke since he's Boruto's sensei ;P
