Square has had a lot of popular games past FF7. Just in the Final Fantasy series, they've had good success with ff9, ff10, ff12, ff14, and ff7 remakes. All of the others in the series are usually pretty well liked too. That's just their final fantasy main line series however.

They also have Dragon Quest, Tomb Raider, Marvel's (both good and bad), and Kingdom Hearts. They also published Nier: Automata; but I'm not sure how much that counts as their game.

All of those series have had successful and unsuccessful games, based on objective sales figures. It seems you may be thinking that SquareEnix == FF only, but that's not really true. And sure, the FF games have a lot in common, but so do the Halo games, the CoD games, etc. That's because they are all part of the same series and it is expected that they have similarities.
