> We can also talk about metaphysics: meta being Greek for “beyond”. This is where science meets philosophy, where we might try to identify underlying principles of reality that go beyond standard physics. Theories of time and space, of causality and determinism, of the nature of existence itself. The etymology of the word "metaphysics" is more complex. The word was at first only a simple bibliographical ordering term denoting those works of Aristotle which were sorted into the Aristotelian corpus "after" ("meta") his works on physics (propably two centuries after they had been written). Aristotle himself never used the word metaphysics (his term was "first philosophy"). It had then been later philosophers who assigned a deeper meaning to "metaphysics". However, theories of time and space, and to some extent[1] also of causality and determinism are still part of "phsics", not of "metaphysics". But leaving etymology aside, I have a deeper discomfort of the article's use of "metaphysics". Except from a few remarks, the article is primarily concerned with game lore. That is something that is much closer to (religious?) mythology than to philosophical metaphysics.[2] [1] Causality, for example, is discussed primarily in Aristotle's "physics", not so much in his metaphysical writings. [2] Not that religion and philosophy are complete antagonists, but when it comes to literary genre mythology and philosophy are quite distinct.
