In 2025, Godot games are being released at 40% the rate of Unreal games. This number is growing for Godot at +100% Y/Y, while Unity + Unreal are growing at +15% (https://steamdb.info/tech/Engine/Godot/?max_release=2025-12-...). By this metric at least, it's a very secure 3rd (with GameMaker in a distant 4th), and could take 2nd in as few as 3 years.

I mostly do agree with what you said, but the project seems (slowly) headed in generally the right direction, and as time goes on, the space of games that only Unity can make will diminish. It's a totally defensible choice for almost any 2D indie game -- which wasn't true just two years ago -- and it's working towards being a viable alternative on XR and consoles too.
