Resident Evil Requiem
First-run horror trades on scripted-but-unknown encounters
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.
Resident Evil Requiem
Resource management and routing converge on optimal runs
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.
