    In the new release, yes. Though by that metric, no game is a success as Manor Lord is platinum. Interestingly, Enshrouded is not in the top sellers, even though it is older by quite a few months.

    Comparing it only to its peers in the category to measure success is a pitfall. Manor Lord is in the highest, platinum, tier, and that is an RTS, colony sim made by a single dev. Does that make all other games in the platinum tier no success?

      If they cost the same as veilguard, absolutely, resounding failure to end up in bronze.

          I meant cost the same to make which is the point here. Veilguard’s marketing budget alone could have generated dozens of Enshrouded games.
