Star Wars: Republic Commando leans clearly harder on execution.
Dragon Age: Inquisition
Action-leaning combat, dodge timing matters
Star Wars: Republic Commando

Dragon Age: Inquisition leans a little harder on reads, though the gap is small.
Dragon Age: Inquisition
Scripted enemy behaviour
Star Wars: Republic Commando

Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Dragon Age: Inquisition
Some loot randomization
Star Wars: Republic Commando

Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Dragon Age: Inquisition
Crafting, specialization, war table planning
