Unity, Unreal, Monogame are a few engines via which ambitious games are regularly shipped. Godot is not among them because Godot has very few good games in it, with a terrible use:release ratio, which is in turn because it is primarily a game dev tutorial platform.

I'm not sure if there is any example of a studio or person making their second game in Godot when their first was not, and this rare occurrence seems to me a product of the "wow this shit is just not a serious engine compared to what I was using" effect.

Games are very complicated to make and take a very long time. Any unneeded friction will compound into games not getting shipped at all most of the time. Godot is uniquely frictional outside the basic happy path.
