Wolfenstein: The New Order
Execution · Practiced Mastery
Alt-history FPS pivoting between brutal combat and quiet moments.

Variance1 vs 1
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Medal of Honor: Rising Sun

Wolfenstein: The New Order

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.
