One of the key targets of a growth hacking team is to enhance the massive growth of early startups in a short time. To do so, it introduces strategies with the help of which one can acquire as many customers as possible with the lowest cost as possible. As part of your team’s growth hacking strategy, your boss wants to map the field of the video game market. She aims to find out how customers evaluate your competitors’ products, namely what they like and dislike in a video game. Knowing what makes a video game attractive to a gamer helps the marketing team articulate the message of your product more effectively. 8 | 9 | To be able to find out what makes a video game worth buying according to gamers, you need to get deeper insights into the linguistic features of their utterances. As an NLP Specialist, your task will be to analyze customers’ reviews about video games. In order to carry out this task, you will employ different NLP methods. These methods will enable you to acquire a deeper understanding of customer feedback and opinion. 10 | 11 | Your task as an NLP Specialist on the Growth Hacking Team is the following: 12 | 13 | * Download the dataset of Amazon reviews. 14 | * Create your own dataset from the Amazon reviews. 15 | * Decide whether people like or dislike the video game they bought. Label each review with a sentiment score between -1 and 1. 16 | * Check the performance of your sentiment analyzer by comparing the sentiment scores with the review ratings. 17 | * Evaluate the performance of your sentiment analyzer and find out if you managed to correctly label the reviews. 18 | * Try out other methods of sentiment analysis. Explore how people evaluate the video game they purchased by classifying the reviews as positive, negative, and neutral. 19 | 20 | Summarize your results to the Head of the Growth Hacking Team. Based on your findings, list those things that are liked and those ones that are disliked about video games. 21 | 22 | ## Techniques Employed 23 | 24 | In order to get a deeper understanding of people’s opinion about video games, you will employ various NLP techniques. Here is a short list about what you will do and what techniques you will use. 25 | 26 | * Sampling from imbalanced datasets using the imbalanced-learn package 27 | * Enquiring about the sentiment value of the reviews with the dictionary-based sentiment analysis tools, which are part of NLTK, a natural language processing toolkit, used in Python. 28 | * Finding out if your algorithm did a good job. Data evaluation with scikit-learn in Python. 29 | * Analyzing the reviews with a state-of-the-art deep learning technique, namely with the DistilBERT model. To build this model, you will need to run Pytorch, transformers, and the simpletransformers packages. 30 | * Evaluating your model and creating descriptive statistics in Python with scikit-learn library before reporting your results to your boss. 31 | * Visualizing your findings about preferable and non-preferable words related to video games using Altair. 32 | 33 | ## Project Outline 34 | 35 | The project is made up of five steps, which are built on each other: 36 | 37 | * Creating your dataset. 38 | * Creating a dictionary-based sentiment analyzer. 39 | * Evaluating your dictionary-based sentiment analyzer. 40 | * Creating neural network-based sentiment analyzers. 41 | * Reporting your results. 42 | 43 | Both the steps and the techniques in this project model a real-life scenario. If you are employed as an NLP Specialist, you are likely to accomplish jobs like these ones. 44 | 45 | ## Dataset 46 | 47 | The Amazon review dataset can be downloaded from [here](https://nijianmo.github.io/amazon/index.html). Download the zipped json file of the category of video games 5 core, which can be found under the title Small subsets for experimentation. Once the download is complete, extract the file. 48 | 49 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /creating_dataset/.ipynb_checkpoints/creating_dataset-checkpoint.ipynb: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | { 2 | "cells": [ 3 | { 4 | "cell_type": "markdown", 5 | "metadata": {}, 6 | "source": [ 7 | "## Objective\n", 8 | "* __Create your own dataset that contains a random sample of reviews__\n", 9 | "\n", 10 | "## Workflow\n", 11 | "\n", 12 | "1.

It is very unforgiving of mistakes, but most of the \"trash\" mobs are harder than the bosses.. Many areas/fights you just will die unless you read a guide or a player left a hint beforehand, because there is no other way to know how you need to prepare. The fights are fun, and normally being hit more than once without healing up means you die, but really once you figure out (or look up) what you need to do for the fight it is extremely easy. When people talk about how brutal it is all they really mean is having to fight your way back to the souls you lost or losing them forever if you die again.. not challenging, just unforgiving.\\n\\nThe tendency system is extremely annoying. To gain pure white character tendency you need to kill black phantoms. To kill black phantoms (other than players) you need pure black world tendency in that area. For that you need to kill yourself several times in body form (and resurrecting with a stone to kill your body again.) The most frustrating part of all this is if you log in the game while online it resets your world tendency, and can reset it randomly while your playing online.. Pure black is a bit easier, just need to kill some friendly npcs. Its like watching paint dry.. why people love doing this is beyond me.\\n\\nThere is also an area where you literally trudge around in water picking up loot with very little fighting at like 50% reduced walk speed and chug poison dispels since the water randomly poisons you for several hours.. seriously?

They must have gotten to big and are getting dragged down by to many cooks and kitchen(Bad management that used to be great talent but now camp and only bog down the real creatives). It is obvious that dragging out release dates is no longer for a high quality products and is just to cobble together a mesh-mash of yesteryear's leftovers. Granted all they do is re-release the same three games :-P but so far they have been doing great at improving them and adding to the muiltiplayer experience and normally have a good story line to go with it. On a side note I can believe it takes them more than two years to try to make the second part/ expansion of StarCraft II. Diablo 3 is an EXACT copy of Diablo 2. This may sound like a good thing but computers have change a little in the last 10 years and it is just not up to snuff. The story line is also very weak. My advice if you want the feeling of playing Diablo again remember what made it great. It was the first of the MMORPG's it was not quite there but it got people thinking about what could be done and playing together online. This could have been a great blend bringing the classic dungeon game to somewhat massive multiplayer but with only one to a max of 3 other people in your game it is a compleate failure and a relic of the past nothing new to see here move along and find a real MMORPG or a rpg or strategy game that can support at least 8 to 12 players in the same game. | \n", 469 | "[i, have, loved, every, blizzard, game, but, this, one, looks, to, be, their, first, big, flop, i, guess, it, had, to, happen, sooner, or, later, they, must, have, gotten, to, big, and, are, getting, dragged, down, by, to, many, cooks, and, kitchenbad, management, that, used, to, be, great, talent, but, now, camp, and, only, bog, down, the, real, creatives, it, is, obvious, that, dragging, out, release, dates, is, no, longer, for, a, high, quality, products, and, is, just, to, cobble, together, a, meshmash, of, yesteryears, leftovers, granted, all, they, do, is, rerelease, the, same, three, games, p, but, so, far, ...] | \n", 470 | "[i, have, loved, every, blizzard, game, but, this, one, looks, to, be, their, first, big, flop, i, guess, it, had, to, happen, sooner, or, later, they, must, have, gotten, to, big, and, are, getting, dragged, down, by, to, many, cooks, and, kitchenbad, management, that, used, to, be, great, talent, but, now, camp, and, only, bog, down, the, real, creatives, it, is, obvious, that, dragging, out, release, dates, is, no, longer, for, a, high, quality, products, and, is, just, to, cobble, together, a, meshmash, of, yesteryears, leftovers, granted, all, they, do, is, rerelease, the, same, three, games, p, but, so, far, ...] | \n", 471 | "

Some of the stores say no shoppers and some sims ask where is shopping, even they are right across the street. A $20 game like Cities in Motion does a lot better than Simcity in terms of path finding and transport system.\\n\\nRendering issues.

| 2434 | \n", 1041 | "Super Ghouls 'N Ghosts is impossible. Nah it's not. It's possible. It's possible to beat this game. I know because I've watched people do it before. But your patience level needs to be at its absolute highest in order to get *anywhere* in this game. With a game so tough it's no wonder most people back in the day only played it a couple times, realized how hard it was and put it away for years until they eventually sold it. I know I would've done the same thing had I not had prior knowledge of this games incredible difficulty.\\n\\nNot getting through level 1 was a bad enough experience for me, but I already knew what to expect going into the game so I didn't mind the loss. I didn't take losing personally. No, not when you're playing a game with a reputation for being extremely hard. You learn to KNOW better! Some people just didn't know what they were getting into when they played this for the first time (and probably now with a whole new generation of gamers, you could pull a really dirty trick on them and say \"Hey! Check out THIS game! I know you'll love it!\" and see what their reaction is like, lol). Probably a face-ripping reaction... that being your face.\\n\\nWhat makes the game so tough is a combination of 3 things- 1 is the play control. Growing up with the NES generation I never minded awkward moving and jumping if the surrounding danger was kept to a minimum. Unfortunately the surrounding danger in this game is *constant* with many precious deadly surprises around every corner, and enemies are located in places *just* off-screen and appearing magically when you move over one notch. Just enough for you to take an unavoidable hit in the cheapest way ever. Throw in water stages and platform logs you have to ride across, and how about a level that moves up and down while riding a platform all the while avoiding surrounding dangerous enemies and their attacks, and that's the kind of nightmare-ish encounters you can expect in Super Ghouls 'N Ghosts. The game *wants* you, BEGS you, to take a walk into dangerous territory just so you can take a hit.\\n\\nThe 2nd reason for this games high challenge and for me clearly the biggest reason, is the fact that you can only get once or twice and then you die. If at least 5 different enemies and attack are occurring all around you giving you little time to react, the generous and actually *right* gameplay method is to allow the player to take at least more than 1 or 2 hits. Even Castlevania with its amazingly high challenge is courteous enough to allow the player to take at least 3-4 hits. Imagine if you couldn't even wear protective gear while roaming through the levels of Super Ghouls 'N Ghosts? Then it simply becomes \"1 hit you're dead\". At least Contra allows the player to reappear in the same spot after a death. No, in this game you either have to start back at the beginning of the stage or the nearest checkpoint. The gameplay is already sluggish enough- it's not worth the aggravation believe me.\\n\\nAnd the 3rd reason is one I already mentioned- enemies being cheap. Too many enemies on screen? Yes. Enemies with unpredictable movements with no clear pattern to retaliate? Oh yeah (those DARN bird creatures have no pattern and you have to deal with more than 1 on screen occasionally!) Oddly the boss fights are relatively easy compared to the regular enemies that often swarm the stages. Too much commotion taking place to properly focus on enemy elimination is an unforgiveable issue. I guess the good news is that at least the levels aren't boring.\\n\\nTo Super Ghouls 'N Ghosts credit a massively challenging game does sometimes have its moments of fun... when you're partying with friends and falling down drunk. Or when a cat is taking its claws and scratching your face to shreds. Or when you're so cold your feet feel like swollen icicles. Or when the Dallas Cowboys are winning. Under these conditions the game is probably fun, but not when you have a nice library of more sensible and enjoyable games sitting just a few feet from where you stand. Oh and... before I forget! If you're somehow able to make it to level 7, you HAVE to use the right weapon to eliminate the boss here otherwise the game will actually kick you back to level 1 preventing you from entering level 8. That's silly, annoying, ridiculous, pathetic and horrible all wrapped in a nice package for grandma.\\n\\nOtherwise this game has really memorable music, fantastic Super NES graphics/superbly detailed backgrounds, and only a little bit of replay value obviously due to the high challenge level but also the fact that the game is short at just over 40 minutes (if you're an amazing enough gamer to blast through these tough stages that is- for the rest of us Super Ghouls 'N Ghosts takes hours to finish). I recommend skipping this one. Contra III: The Alien Wars is the other ridiculously hard Super NES game but at least it's fairer. | \n", 1042 | "[super, ghoul, n, ghost, be, impossible, nah, not, possible, possible, beat, game, i, know, ive, watch, people, do, patience, level, need, be, absolute, high, order, get, anywhere, game, game, so, tough, wonder, most, people, back, day, only, played, couple, time, realize, hard, be, put, away, year, eventually, sell, i, know, i, wouldve, do, same, thing, have, i, not, have, prior, knowledge, game, incredible, difficulty, not, get, level, be, bad, enough, experience, i, already, knew, expect, go, game, so, i, didnt, mind, loss, i, didnt, take, lose, personally, not, youre, play, game, reputation, be, extremely, hard, learn, know, well, people, just, ...] | \n", 1043 | "1.250 | \n", 1044 | "
