Reviewing Video Game Monsters [D&D, Magic, Digimon, etc]

So after my huge, huge attempt to review every single Pokemon from a design and lore standpoint, I had decided to do similar things for other games. I'm not sure how long this will go, or how many games I will cover, but it's been pretty fun!

Dungeons & Dragons

4eFile:Tiamat1.jpg4e4e
A flavour/fluff-centric review of the monsters, races and creatures of Dungeons & Dragons. I had long debated which edition to pick from, and ended up just going with 5th Edition, the currently newest and most popular one. It's partially me reviewing the monsters and noting what I find interesting, as well as a bit of a read-through as I go through the 5th Edition sourcebooks and go through some of the stuff I might've missed before. Maybe in the future we'll touch upon previous editions... we'll see.

Resident Evil / Biohazard

I review all the monsters in Capcom's famous zombie-survival horror-action game series. I talk way too much about the monsters and the creative (and sometimes uncreative) ways that Capcom stretches the definition of 'zombie' and 'bioweapon' in a video game franchise that I didn't care much before but ended up really loving. The series has a lot of side-games and spinoffs (though I'd argue that CODE: Veronica and 0 at the very least count as 'main titles') so for ease of reading, I'll be listing the major numbered entries first, followed by any other game that doesn't follow the numbering system.

Magic: The Gathering

The grandfather of collectible trading card games and lasting for more than 30 years, Magic the Gathering has a lot of cards and a lot of creatures and monsters for me to talk about. Join me in this very flavour-inspired lens towards MTG's long history!

My commentary of monsters in video games made by Nintendo (other than Pokemon). Mostly we'll be talking about the Legend of Zelda series, which is one of the biggest influences in my love for fantasy video games and monsters in general; but I've also reviewed Pikmin. I'll group them here for convenience Click here for Pokemon.

    DIGIMON

    Digimon World Box ArtThe Digimon are arranged in rough chronological order of their actual debut year, be it in a virtual pet, anime or video game. Unlike Pokemon, Digimon as a franchise is a bit more sporadic in how they debut their creatures. Currently completed as of 2021, and the episodes here are roughly split up based on the accompanying major fiction (i.e. the various anime series) whenever possible.

      Other games with monsters that I have reviewed. This mostly includes Blizzard games (Diablo II and Warcraft III) but also a bunch of other outliers or one-off reviews.
