This has variety of uses, here's few examples:
* Recognizing favored and avoided elements (e.g. which character class most players play as and when)
* Recognizing unused and overused elements (may help recognize elements that might either be poorly visible or just under-/overpowered)
* Session lengths and/or how active the players are during each session
* Recognizing most difficult and easy elements, especially if such were unintentional (e.g. player repeatedly being defeated by something that shouldn't cause it that much)

This can be indirectly done via public player stats, but such instances are not to be included in here by default.
