M2E4: OBJECTION! (Ace Attorney and Empiricism)

Philosophiraga: The Video Games and Philosophy Podcast

22-05-2020 • 16 mins

It's another episode of Philosophiraga, the bite-sized deep-dive into video games and philosophy.

This time, we're looking at empiricism: the view that we know stuff through experience, and no other way. Phoenix Wright and co will help us to think about different kinds of knowledge, how experiencing something can help us to prove claims true or false, and what there even is to experience anyway.
