I can't agree with you on Sea of Thieves though. It doesn't look like a high budget title, it's marketing won't be that big outside of Microsoft events, and Quantum Break and Halo Wars 2 had pretty massive marketing pushes, both flopped heavily. Recore had a similar marketing to Sea of Thieves and that also flopped. 

 

According ot an insider Sea of Thieves is costing lots of money to make http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=228106253&postcount=1343

If its true it makes sense it would get lots of advertising so its a success.

Ok but, again, ... that really has nothing to do with it's success. Just a big budget does not make a game successful. I just listed big Microsoft projects that flopped.
