这书得有人划重点才能看...而且感觉实际案例并不多的样子
评分这书得有人划重点才能看...而且感觉实际案例并不多的样子
评分专注于数据挖掘和分析,以及工具和方法的构建,相当专业的一本书,也很系统,同时附加了大量interview,也有业内和学界的人亲自撰写的部分。但是……还没看完的时候就只剩一个感受:眼睛要瞎了
评分这本书纠集了产学研经验丰富的多方人员完成,涵盖内容特别丰富,涉及各类游戏分析(含游戏玩法分析,玩家行为分析等;只涉及前半部分,不涉及发行之后的市场,特别是渠道)流程方法构建,游戏分析技术(sdk),工具(bi等等),挖掘算法,空间分析,可视化报告,还涉及用户调研;尽管丰富但不系统,大量采访的直接汇编可以理解为偷懒,没有很少的梳理,使得篇幅长信息少(甚至有些采访让我觉得是bi工具厂商的植入广告)。 相对而言这本书更适合游戏策划的书籍。
