M2E3: Cogito Ergo You Died (Dark Souls and Rationalism)

In this episode of Philosophiraga, the gaming and philosophy podcast, we take a look at rationalism. How can we know things without experiencing them? Rationalism has a few suggestions.Speaking of things we know without having experienced them, the way Dark Souls presents its story is so unlike anything else I've ever come across that I think it's worth talking about.We discuss intuition, innate knowledge, big ol' dragons, Souls of Lords, and playing games with a banana, all on this episode of Philosophiraga.-If you're a fan of the show, I'm given to understand that feeding the algorithms by leaving ratings or reviews on Apple Podcasts or Podchaser is a super helpful thing you can do, so... go do that.
