Same score on execution - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Bulletstorm
Leash, kick, and shot timing drive skillshot chains
Resident Evil 4
Crowd management requires precise, fast shooting under constant pressure
Reads1 vs 1
Same score on reads - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Bulletstorm
Enemies are scripted fodder for your combos
Resident Evil 4
Ganados follow scripted group patterns, not player modelling
Variance2 vs 2
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Bulletstorm
Arenas and spawns are fixed and learnable
Resident Evil 4
Minor drop RNG from enemies but encounters are fixed
Optimization6 vs 6
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Bulletstorm
Maximising skillshot score per arena is a solvable puzzle
Resident Evil 4
Weapon upgrading, positioning and merchant economy are solvable
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.
