Loom leans Optimization (Pure Optimization); South Park: The Fractured But Whole leans Optimization (Pure Optimization).
LoomSouth Park: The Fractured But Whole
Axis by axis
Execution2 vs 2
Even - both lean on execution about the same.
Reads0 vs 0
Even - both lean on reads about the same.
Variance1 vs 2
South Park: The Fractured But Whole leans harder on variance: Minor roll spread; encounters are otherwise fixed
Optimization8 vs 7
Loom leans harder on optimization: Learning and combining distaff spells in the correct order is a fully solvable logic system
Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
