Axis by axis
Execution8 vs 4
Mega Man leans clearly harder on execution.
Mega Man
Pixel-precise jumps and shots against brutal fixed stages
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
Combat timing matters but generous dodges forgive sloppy play.
Reads0 vs 1
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt leans a little harder on reads, though the gap is small.
Mega Man
Robot Masters cycle rigid scripted patterns
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
Enemies use fixed AI behaviours; no adaptation.
Variance1 vs 2
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt leans a little harder on variance, though the gap is small.
Mega Man
Nothing changes between attempts
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
Loot rolls and minor combat variance only.
Optimization6 vs 6
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Mega Man
Boss-order weakness routing is a known solvable layer
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
Builds, alchemy, and quest routing reward planning.
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.
