Abstract: Techniques for improving a user video game experience are described. In an example, a computer system receives event data from a plurality of user devices. Each event data includes an identifier of an activity in a video game and data and an identifier of a mechanic used to complete the activity. The identifiers can be predefined in program code of the video game. The identifiers data can be received based on an execution of the program code. The event data is processed to determine, for a user that has not completed the activity, a readiness of the user to perform the activity. Depending on the readiness, the activity can be suggested in a user interface element.

Abstract: Techniques for improving a user video game experience are described. In an example, a computer system receives event data from a plurality of user devices. Each event data includes an identifier of an activity in a video game and data indicating completion of the activity. The identifier can be predefined in program code of the video game. The identifier and completion data can be received based on an execution of the program code. The event data is processed to estimate, for a user that has not completed the activity, a length of time for the activity completion. The length of time can be presented on a user interface.

Abstract: Techniques for improving a graphical user interface are described. In an example, a computer system receives event data from a plurality of user devices. Each event data includes an identifier of an activity in a video game, completion data indicating completion of the activity, and location data indicating where the activity was completed in the video game. The identifier can be predefined in program code of the video game. The evet data can be received based on an execution of the program code. The event data is processed to determine where the likely location for completing the activity in the video game. This likely location is shown as a graphical user interface element in a map.
