Bow aiming and dodge timing matter.
Kena: Bridge of Spirits
Parry and dodge timing in boss fights

Horizon Zero Dawn
Weak points, traps, builds fully solvable.
Kena: Bridge of Spirits
Rot ability usage and boss pattern learning
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.
