Silent Hill: HomecomingThe Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
Axis by axis
Execution4 vs 4
Same score on execution - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.

Dodge-and-counter combat needs modest timing

Combat timing matters but generous dodges forgive sloppy play.

Silent Hill: Homecoming
Monsters attack on fixed patterns
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
Enemies use fixed AI behaviours; no adaptation.
Variance3 vs 2
Silent Hill: Homecoming leans a little harder on variance, though the gap is small.
Silent Hill: Homecoming
First-run layouts and ambushes hide information
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.
Silent Hill: Homecoming
Enemy patterns and routes are learnable
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.
