Axis by axis

Execution7 vs 7

Even - both lean on execution about the same.

Reads3 vs 3

Even - both lean on reads about the same.

Variance3 vs 2

Gas Guzzlers Extreme leans harder on variance: Pickups and combat outcomes add some randomness

Optimization5 vs 4

Gas Guzzlers Extreme leans harder on optimization: Vehicle upgrades, weapon loadouts and race-line optimization matter

Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
