The Eve team doesn't respect deadlines because they follow the "it'll be released when it's ready" philosophy.
Uhm, no. The Eve team has released plenty of incomplete or buggy stuff. "Polish" definitely isn't something that they have shown to do really well and the steep learning curve isn't just due to the complexity of the game, but also because the game has very rough edges.
So that's not part of what makes Eve successful today, imho.
