Machines follow fixed patterns, not adapting.
Watch Dogs: Legion
AI scripted; no real modeling.
Variance2 vs 3
Watch Dogs: Legion leans a little harder on variance, though the gap is small.
Horizon Zero Dawn
Some loot and patrol randomness.
Watch Dogs: Legion
Recruit perks and patrols randomize widely.
Optimization5 vs 5

Horizon Zero Dawn
Weak points, traps, builds fully solvable.
Watch Dogs: Legion
Recruit synergy, gadgets, routes solvable.
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.
