They're still moving forward with the sequel (at least according to the article), so if I had to guess they figured they missed the boat with the expansion and want to focus on the sequel instead.

Which is fine, but I have no idea why they're just throwing everything they have in the trash. They built the whole world and just sat on it. Expansions could make them so much money to fund the next game in the short term

Yeah, I was surprised given the success that they didn't even spit out something to keep people engaged with the game. Seemed like even a small content update or doc would have pulled people in.

Hopefully it just means the follow-up will be even better.

Seriously they could have done sims level DLC and people could have just kept buying. New mounts, small new areas, bits of story here and there, a new class

They very well could be implementing that stuff into the sequel.
