Jhr2 - several things on your list are inaccurate. A couple aren't, which is totally fair, but most are.
But I don't have the energy anymore.
IIRC none of that was verbally promised except realistic day night cycles and multiplayer.
Giant snakes, and giant creatures, are in the game.

It's somewhat funny to me that only the missing(?) multiplayer part got that much attention. Because if we compare it with what has been shown and talked about, we have:
- A much simpler animal AI
- No completely extraordinary animals as, e.g., giant snakes
- The same goes for "completely extraordinary" anything, actually
- Skyboxed solar systems with all planets on one side of the sun and relatively close togehter (obviously not orbiting anything)
- Moons not orbiting planets
- Skyboxed, non-rotating planets
- Sun movement thus obviously not dictated by any kind of "real physics"
- Day/night cycles the same everywhere
- Missing multiplayer
Quite some stuff missing, actually.
