Half-Life 2
Almost no randomness.
One Finger Death Punch 2
Wave composition shuffles slightly between rounds
Optimization3 vs 3
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Half-Life 2
Linear progression with no builds.
One Finger Death Punch 2
Skill loadouts and restraint from mashing form light strategy
