It was cancelled before the "core 10 books" were ever published. Essentials was suppose to be a rules update, but many stated that so much was changed that it was simply not compatible. Not releasing PDFs is not obsolescence, but not releasing a sellable product they already have on their computers. To be honest, from an outside observer standpoint, Wizards feel like NASA to me. NASA has a goal of establishing a moon base, then a new administration comes in and says scrap that, lets get people on Mars. So they make progress towards that. Then a new administration comes in and changes the goal to getting people on to set foot on an asteroid. Over and over again, this happens. No presidential administration sticks with the goal of the previous administration long enough to actually get man kind to anywhere we have yet to actually be. And the end result, while great, is not what it could be. I love the 5e books. I think they are excellent. I also love Curiosity. Its a great rover. But it is not a moon base nor a Martian exploration team. Just like there are no short adventures coming, no areas of the setting detailed, no example deity pantheons beyond one line entries in the PHB and a short section in the DMG, and much more.</blockquote>
