D20 Modern: Has Wizard stopped caring about it?

[King of Old School]

FWIW, both Stan! and Rich Redman have stated that d20M sold decently well, about as well as SW-RCR and better (in the pre-GURPS4e/NWoD era) than any other modern-era RPG. It wasn't a commercial failure, unless you're holding it to a D&D standard of sales; unfortunately, that's the standard that Wizards uses, because they have a finite amount of resources to be spent on developing RPG products.

IMO, d20M v1 is dead, at least as a Wizards product. I do think we'll see a v2 at or prior to GenCon 2009.

As well as the RCR? Then why did the RCR get a Second Printing run, and d20 Modern did not?

I'm glad that the plan is to get around to d20 Moderner eventually. A lot of the changes previewed in SW Saga and D&D 4.0 seem like they'd be good fits.

And Vig can do "Blood & Fists: Reninjad" and take some more of my money.
