Overlord II
Optimization · Practiced Mastery
The sequel adds minion mounts and an evil empire to corral with your goblin hordes.
Assassin's Creed Rogue leans Optimization (Practiced Mastery); Overlord II leans Optimization (Practiced Mastery).

Overlord II

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.
