Fantastic Strings and Where to Find Them: The Quest for High-Quality Video Game Text Corpora

High-quality video game text corpora can be used as resources for many types of research, including but not limited to text generation for games. However, these corpora are scarce. We address this issue by proposing a number of quality criteria for video game text corpora, and describing from where such corpora can be obtained. We also present three datasets with game texts from popular video games Torchlight II, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and The Elder Scrolls, together with examples of how these corpora can be used in research.
