Return of the Obra DinnThe Talos Principle 2
Axis by axis
Execution0 vs 1
The Talos Principle 2 leans harder on execution: Environmental traversal imposes negligible physical demands
Reads0 vs 0
Even - both lean on reads about the same.
Variance0 vs 0
Even - both lean on variance about the same.
Optimization10 vs 9
Return of the Obra Dinn leans harder on optimization: Pure deductive logic on a fixed manifest
Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
