Let's be honest the people who would defend their ROI have lost interest in defending it to the unwilling. Star Citizen has become a cat call to all the haters whenever it's posted in general gaming (namely r/games and c/games now) communities. The only way the narrative changes is by showing not telling, and that only happens with further polishing like this article is covering, and in future release.
There is a reason they've successfully increased pledge numbers year over year, you just don't hear from people outside that community due to this stigma that's not worth bothering to explain.
