Valg will become famous soon enough
I think longevity is just as good of a predictor, however. Lots of new games with commercial goals go belly-up in the short term, even those backed by otherwise successful companies. They may have backed a sub-par product, had a poor business plan, etc. I'd trust a long-running free game with stable ownership over an upstart commercial product. They've obviously figured out how to keep their game running.
