Methodology
The raw data for the two factors was cleaned, checked, and standardized on the same scale from 0 to 10, where 0 and 10 represent the worst and best values present in the data to allow for accurate comparison between factors. Factors for which a high score would be negative were subtracted from 10 to invert their scoring.
Each factor was assigned weighting, reflecting its importance in the analysis. The factors, their source and their percentage weightings are as follows:
- Avg. Download Rate (Mbps) on Steam, 80.0%: https://store.steampowered.com/stats/content/
- Total MB Used on Steam per Person from 24/08/20-24/08/27 (using 2023 populations), 20.0%: https://store.steampowered.com/stats/content/
Once the weightings were assigned, the total score for the factors was calculated, producing an overall index score out of 100 for each entry, upon which the final ranking is based.
