(also hey there 84% update) I think the main difference seems to be that Witcher's results are coming from matches where its facing games of the same genre(and in odysseys case, a straight up inferior version of Witcher 3) so most objective voting would go to the better game, which is witcher.

Very good result from Witcher, but it's also the worst possible opponent Mass Effect 3 could have drawn so I'm hesitant to draw big conclusions from it. I mean, we've said this two rounds in a row to downplay its performances! I don't know that this is a stronger Galaxy 2. Witcher 3 has faced two AAA games and Galaxy 2 has faced perhaps the weakest game in the bracket and indie Harvest Moon.
