head to head
Ghost of TsushimavsSpider-Man 2
Neither is meaningfully harder - they pose close to the same test. The widest gap is optimization, and it is a single point.

Execution6 vs 6
Same score on execution - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Ghost of Tsushima
Parry and stance timing carry duels and standoffs
Spider-Man 2
web-swinging and combat timing precision
Reads1 vs 1
Same score on reads - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Ghost of Tsushima
Mongol AI is scripted, not adaptive
Spider-Man 2
scripted villains, no adaptation
Variance1 vs 1
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Ghost of Tsushima
Encounters are largely deterministic
Spider-Man 2
minimal randomness in encounters
Optimization6 vs 5
Ghost of Tsushima leans a little harder on optimization, though the gap is small.
Ghost of Tsushima
Stance matchups, charms, and gear are solvable systems
Spider-Man 2
gadget and skill tree optimization
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.
