Axis by axis
Execution3 vs 3
Even - both lean on execution about the same.
Reads0 vs 0
Even - both lean on reads about the same.
Variance5 vs 5
Even - both lean on variance about the same.
Optimization7 vs 8
Torchlight II leans harder on optimization: Skill trees and gear synergies decide character power
Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
