Axis by axis

Grand Theft Auto V
Driving and shooting demand decent inputs.
Reads1 vs 2
Grand Theft Auto V leans a little harder on reads, though the gap is small.
Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines
Templar guards are entirely scripted
Grand Theft Auto V
Online PvP exists but mostly gear/positioning, not modeling.
Variance2 vs 2
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines
Compact fixed maps leave few surprises
Grand Theft Auto V
Some mission and lobby randomness.
Optimization5 vs 4
Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines leans a little harder on optimization, though the gap is small.
Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines
Route knowledge and counter timing are quickly solved
Grand Theft Auto V
Heists, money loops, builds learnable.
