Optimization · Pure Optimization
Tests party building and turn-by-turn resource play across explorable fixed dungeons.
Persona 5
Optimization · Pure Optimization
Stylish JRPG where phantom thieves steal hearts on a tightly optimized school calendar.
Might & Magic X: Legacy leans Optimization (Pure Optimization); Persona 5 leans Optimization (Pure Optimization).

Same score on reads - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Might & Magic X: Legacy
Monsters use fixed behaviours, never adapt
Persona 5
Palace enemies use fixed weaknesses
Variance3 vs 3
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Might & Magic X: Legacy

Persona 5
Fusion alerts and negotiation rolls
Optimization8 vs 8
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.

Confidant calendar routing and baton-pass weakness chains
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.
