I find it extremely hard to imagine that WOTC would spend 4e’s entire run just recycling old settings. The only way that makes sense to me is if they are just marking time until 5e, which in that scenario would now be the focus of most of their efforts.
Hopefully they are not just "marking time" until 5E.
This would make a lot of people very angry, if it turns out in hindsight that they were just "marking time".
I suspect there probably also won't be a 4.5E this time around to revive "slow" sales of books, considering that they have been adding the rules changes to the yearly PHBs (and maybe DMGs).
