I believe it's a good thing.
Eve is not growing, there's no Eve FPS to maintain active at the moment and the only hope to make some profit for CCP was to change Eve subscription program, and they're "kinda" doing it, and to develop mobile games, wich may be considered the easiest and cheapiest moneygrab for videogames industry.
Valkyrie may also be quite a good surprise for what concerns copies sold since it's one of the few games that ships at launch with PSVR. So, yeah, if CCP makes money, they may spend more on R&D, potentially improving the overall quality of the future Eve fps.

Is it still a popular game? Making money? I really wish I heard more about it. Uh, I don't know, I guess it isn't that popular for PC since there are not many Oculus/Vive around due to price and required specs. I was purposefully talking about psvr since it is much more affordable and does not have a too wide variety of full games for now, so it might be a good first buy title for psvr owners.
Official reviews are pretty mixed: not awesome, not bad. http://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/eve-valkyrie

We took the proverbial dead horse, beat it until its bones were turned to Dust, mixed it with concrete so we can make a statue of a horse out of it just so we can once again beat it to death. I think "bashing" was too kind of a term to describe it. ^Pretty much this.
I partly disagree with that: while it's true that the community has been pretty harsh at times, it's also true that most of them had a point. And while they had a point, most of them also loved the game and what it could have been: that's probably one reason why they bashed Dust so hard compared to other games. Moreover, especially during the first year, they've been sold an illusion, a project for the future, not just the game as it were with uprising 1.0, but the entire "plan".
So, I believe that while it is true that the community has been beating the dead horse over and over again, it's because they really wanted the horse to be alive again, like if it were some kind of sadistic reviving technique which of course didn't work out well.

True that, even if I still believe it wasn't the best outcome for many, but it's definitely too early to even speculate about that.
