Come learn about how real-life necrophages help maintain the nutrient cycle, why I think Insectoid monsters are incorrectly named, and hear the proof that some monsters in this game are highly eusocial.Music by Bret Eagleston (@breadeagles, breteagleston.bandcamp.com), Podcast art by Lara LeBlanc. <hr> Hosted on Acast.

Ep. 17 - Monster Ecology in the Witcher 3

I play popular open-world RPGs from an ecological perspective. On “Gamer’s Guide to Ecology” I dive into topics like plant and animal interactions, animal behaviour, evolution, and the impacts of the game's characters on in-game biodiversity.
