Astérix: The Gallic WarRatchet & Clank: Into the Nexus
Axis by axis
Execution5 vs 6
Ratchet & Clank: Into the Nexus leans harder on execution: Aiming, strafing, and platforming under fire carry combat
Reads0 vs 0
Even - both lean on reads about the same.
Variance2 vs 1
Astérix: The Gallic War leans harder on variance: Map outcomes are largely deterministic once mechanics are learned
Optimization6 vs 6
Even - both lean on optimization about the same.
Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
