Then you have the author of Twilight that started world building after the first book, created a number of characters with interesting background lore, then proceeded to do nothing with any of it.
It’s even worse than that - Twilight was originally fanfic for Anne Rice’s Vampire Chronicles series, so it’s all just Lestat with a fake mustache and sparkles.
I read that series out of spite when it was popular, and actually started getting interested in the lore and world when she started introducing fucking X-Men powers. Huge build up, huge hype, and then… fucking nothing. I shouldn’t have been surprised, but alas.

And 50 shades was a Twilight fanfic…
And Interview with the Vampire was fanfic based on a cross between Blacula and the David Frost interview of Richard Nixon…
And the very existence of Richard Milhous Nixon was a protest against the statehood of Arizona and New Mexico gone horribly wrong.
Nah man. Nixon was a product of Dr. Killinger who specializes in creating supervillains.
