Among the SleepRed Dead Redemption 2
Axis by axis
Execution2 vs 5
Red Dead Redemption 2 leans clearly harder on execution.
Among the Sleep
Toddler locomotion and hiding need little dexterity
Red Dead Redemption 2
Gunplay and Dead Eye reward aim and timing.
Reads0 vs 1
Red Dead Redemption 2 leans a little harder on reads, though the gap is small.
Among the Sleep
The pursuing monster follows scripted triggers
Red Dead Redemption 2
Enemies use scripted AI patterns, not adaptation.
Variance2 vs 2
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Among the Sleep
Scares are scripted-but-unknown on a first run
Red Dead Redemption 2
Some hunting and weather randomness, lightly hidden.
Optimization4 vs 4
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Among the Sleep
Finding memory objects and routes solves each chapter
Red Dead Redemption 2
Loadouts and routes solvable but loose.
A matching score does not mean a matching test. Two games can both sit at 10 on execution and demand completely different things of you - which is why the reasoning above matters more than the number beside it.
