head to head
Neither is simply harder - they are hard in different places. Batman Forever demands more execution; The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt demands more optimization.

Wrestling awkward scripted brawling controls through fixed, memorisable stages.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

Builds, alchemy, and quest routing reward planning.
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.
