I think both have been successful. Like I think BG3 is a 9 or 9.5 while Starfield is an 8 maybe 7.5.
As for what I judge as success I'm not really sure to be honest. Maybe critical success? I just think sales alone is deceiving because a game can be hyped up or have a huge marketing campaign then people buy it . But it turns out to be terrible then they're stuck with it.
