it will, don't worry. the good message is that the only real competitor (ethereum) needs the whole year
to design and create the system. enough time to built the best tools for nxt.
i am following the dev and design decisions there very closely and some ideas they have are really good.
e.g. they also discussing to add more expression to thier scripting language (a functional approach like lisp/picolisp)
to enhance smart contracts (from my pov the current version is more semi smart and something like  a chainable bunch
of conditional based code reactors). they are also discussing distributed applications and stuff like this.
well, nxt already have distributed applications ;-)
