Axis by axis
Execution5 vs 4
Rogue Legacy leans a little harder on execution, though the gap is small.
Rogue Legacy
Platformer combat requires reactive dodging and timing
State of Decay 2: Juggernaut Edition
Combat is loose; positioning beats precision
Reads0 vs 0
Same score on reads - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Rogue Legacy
Castle enemies are scripted; no adaptive opponent exists
State of Decay 2: Juggernaut Edition
Zombies swarm on script, never adapt
Variance5 vs 5
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Rogue Legacy
Heir traits and room layouts introduce run-to-run randomness
State of Decay 2: Juggernaut Edition
Survivor traits, sieges and map events are randomised
Optimization6 vs 7
State of Decay 2: Juggernaut Edition leans a little harder on optimization, though the gap is small.
Rogue Legacy
Gold investment and class unlocking form a steady meta-progression layer
State of Decay 2: Juggernaut Edition
Base building, resource routing and risk management dominate
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.
