What do I really think? Sony are about to shit on Hello Games and make them wish they'd never signed the deal with Sony. If Sony don't promote NMS with a big marketing deal and a bundle then they will be responsible for the biggest injustice they've ever perpertrated in many a year, and it will piss me off for quite some time. Faith and risk is something that set them apart from other companies and this will be an indication that they're just looking at the bottom line like any other company. Hello Games deserve better.

How would Sony be shitting on NMS when its been at the center of marketing since the ps4 was revealed.  Do you think this game would be as big and as talked about without all the E3 press events and late night talk show appearances?

This is a good point. But it could use some advertising right now with the release of it coming up. My thinking is Sony doesn't know how to sell it with a bigger launch marketing. It reminds me of Until Dawn. Sony just let the game sell itself. Looking back on it now, and how many people ended up loving the game, Sony could of done better at marketing it and made bundle. A horror movie type bundle would of gotten peoples attention more. There were many opportunities to increase its sales. I guess COD and Destiny marketing money is more important.
