Successful as in many people can play. I am not denying other people have problems, but objectively LOTS of people are getting in and enjoying the game. The fact that the servers are constantly full, even in off hours is a testament to this.

Successful as in profitable. The game sold a LOT of preorders and post launch expansions.

Successful as in a positive review after playing the game. Many people give the story and the experience (when being able to play) glowing reviews. Almost all negative comments are about logging in.. not playing.


So yes. Successful. This does not mean "flawless".
