Axis by axis
Execution4 vs 4
Even - both lean on execution about the same.
Reads1 vs 1
Even - both lean on reads about the same.
Variance3 vs 2
Palworld leans harder on variance: Pal spawns and breeding RNG
Optimization8 vs 7
Palworld leans harder on optimization: Base automation, breeding chains, gear progression
Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
