I love how everyone bitches about delays and broken games on launch, but gets annoyed when these guys don't set a hard date or release window.

The E3 showings I agree with, but I'd put that blame on Sony. Bitching at the developers for having ambition just seems silly though. Yeah, let's tell developers to be less ambitious with their work and scale back any attempts at innovation! That sounds great for the industry!

I'm all for ambition, but there comes a point where it gets a little insane to preview feature after feature on IGN Exclusives and hold an ASK ME ANYTHING session when they're still holding back even a release date window.
This isn't letting us know the game is being made, this is a non-stop hype machine. Until they know when the game comes out and are willing to share that information with the rest of the world, I think they should largely keep quiet.

I think the reason he can't give a release date is that the game is coming out the same date as Morpheus and bundled with it. No release date for Morpheus= No release date for NMS.

I can't speak for this company, or know how much Sony is funding them, but I know in the case of other smaller companies and startups a lot of the early reveal and info is so they can continue to get funding and investors. It's not always the case where you get X million dollars upfront for the entire development cycle.

I just don't get it. I understand the charm and pull of a big open world playground...but without a clear story and mission structure to pull you forward, the game will be boring. I can't imagine Fallout 4 if all the missions and side missions were removed.
I hope I am wrong...

I don't get Minecraft either, but I was told similar when I played SimCity as a kid.

I don't like that either...but from my 3 kids, the charm comes with playing with each other and friends and building things. No Man's Sky does not look to have that building mechanic that minecraft has, and it looks to be targeting an older crowd.
Again, I just don't see the pull of No man's sky...

One thing that could hook me, is a solid RPG like progression system with your ship and character. I have not followed this game a lot, so I am not sure what there is but I know there was talk of upgrading your ship. We shall see.
