Godot exists to be a playground for game dev aspirants, not as an engine for shipping serious games. The Community (tm) likes gdscript because it's "easier" to "get started". They are completely unconcerned with it being harder to finish.
I am not convinced that that matters. Great games have been made with Godot (Cruelty Squad) and GameMaker (Sexy Hiking), or with no engine at all (Minecraft, Cave Story).
Slay the Spire 2 was shipped using godot. I've found it's easier to develop on than Unity. This is an outdated understanding imo
I love Slay the Spire 2, it is a very good game, but it most honestly doesn't look or feel technically impressive.
