Abstract

This study investigates the application of sentiment analysis to understand user feedback for Call of Duty Mobile, a highly popular mobile game, by analyzing 50,000 reviews sourced from the Google Play Store. The research aimed to extract actionable insights from user sentiments, which could guide future game development and improvement. To achieve this, the sentiment of each review was analyzed using VADER (Valence Aware Dictionary and sEntiment Reasoner), a robust tool for classifying sentiment in textual data. The study categorizes reviews into three sentiment groups—positive, negative, and neutral—to identify and analyze prevailing user emotions. The findings revealed that the majority of reviews were positive, with users primarily praising the gameplay, graphics, and overall mobile experience. These aspects were considered crucial in driving user satisfaction and contributed to a majority of the positive feedback. Conversely, negative reviews were often focused on issues such as network connectivity problems, long loading times, and performance errors, indicating areas where users experienced frustration. These results highlight the importance of technical performance and network stability as key factors influencing player satisfaction. The study also delved deeper into keyword analysis to uncover common themes in the reviews, such as in-app purchases and concerns related to technical performance, which were frequently mentioned by users in both positive and negative feedback. These insights provide developers with a clearer understanding of what players value most in the game and where improvements are necessary. The study concludes that sentiment analysis can serve as a powerful tool for understanding user feedback, offering developers a data-driven approach to enhance game features and address user concerns. Moving forward, future research could benefit from the application of additional machine learning models to refine sentiment classification accuracy, as well as the integration of cross-platform reviews to gain a more comprehensive understanding of player sentiment across different user groups and devices. Such approaches would provide a richer, more nuanced view of user experiences, enabling game developers to create even more engaging and satisfying gaming experiences.

Abstract

The advent of virtual environments, particularly within the Metaverse, has revolutionized the way sports simulations and virtual leagues operate. In these environments, understanding and predicting player market value is essential for optimizing team management, player scouting, and in-game strategies. This paper presents a clustering approach using K-Means to segment players based on their performance attributes and predict their market value in virtual leagues. The dataset includes various player attributes such as age, goals scored, assists, minutes played, and performance metrics like expected goals (xG) and expected assists (xA). The K-Means clustering algorithm was applied to partition players into three distinct groups based on their performance profiles. The results indicated that high-performing players, characterized by high goals scored, assists, and other key metrics, were grouped in one cluster, while lower-performing players were segmented into another. These clusters correspond to different player market values, with higher-performance clusters being associated with higher market value. The clustering analysis reveals significant patterns that can inform virtual league operations, including player trading, recruitment, and team-building strategies. The findings suggest that virtual league developers, managers, and gamers can leverage these clusters to make more informed decisions regarding player acquisitions and team compositions. Furthermore, the clustering results can be used to dynamically adjust player values based on their performance attributes, offering a realistic simulation of real-world sports economics. Future research may explore more advanced clustering techniques, such as hierarchical clustering, and expand the dataset to include additional attributes like player psychology or external factors like fan sentiment. Overall, this paper highlights the potential of clustering algorithms to enhance player market valuation and decision-making within virtual leagues.

Abstract

The gaming industry, particularly within the metaverse, has seen significant transformations driven by the integration of social media, influencer marketing, and player engagement metrics. These elements are crucial in shaping the success and revenue generation of games. This study explores the role of social media mentions and influencer endorsements in influencing game revenue, applying DBSCAN clustering to segment player engagement into distinct groups. By analyzing the "Gaming Trend 2024" dataset, which includes key metrics such as social media mentions, influencer endorsements, in-game purchases, and game revenue, we identify patterns in player behavior that directly impact revenue generation. The DBSCAN clustering method was employed to group players based on their social media interactions and influencer influence, identifying key segments that contribute to game success. The results reveal that certain clusters, characterized by higher social media engagement and influencer endorsements, are associated with increased game revenue. In contrast, other segments showed lower engagement and contributed less to overall revenue. The clustering analysis highlights the power of social media and influencers in driving player behavior, which in turn drives financial outcomes for game developers. This research provides insights into how targeted marketing strategies, personalized influencer campaigns, and tailored engagement efforts can enhance game revenue. This study offers practical applications for game developers and marketers in the metaverse, emphasizing the need to leverage clustering insights to optimize marketing strategies and increase revenue. Future research could expand on these findings by integrating sentiment analysis of social media mentions, exploring alternative clustering methods like hierarchical clustering, and developing hybrid models that combine clustering with predictive analytics to forecast game revenue trends.
