Witchfire
Enemies are scripted AI, never modelling you

Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Real weather and live traffic
Witchfire
Run loot and arena spawns shuffle between expeditions

Flight planning, systems mastery, routing
Witchfire
Weapon unlocks, build paths and arsenal knowledge compound
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.
