We don't live in a dream world. My point was that in the context of the film that part is in the fake simulation of the Matrix, so it doesn't really matter what they theorize about the Matrix videogame (they're speaking about a videogame matrix simulation). In Matrix 4 Neo is again living in the Matrix just like he was in the first film and this Thomas Anderson is a world famous videogame designer who created the Matrix Trilogy. This scene is about conceptualizing ideas for a 4th Matrix videogame. It's a very meta scene, and is kind of like Scream 3 in the sense that it's a dramatization of something that actually is really happening. In Scream 3 the killings take place on the set of the movie Stab 3 (Stab 1 was a dramatization of the events of Scream 1, and Stab 2 was dramatization of the events of Scream 2 - Stab 3 was a made up-sequel where the killing events of Scream 3 occur). With the Matrix 4 instead of movies it's videogames. The Matrix trilogy videogames were based on memories (unbeknownst to Thomas Anderson) of the events of the first three Matrix films. So they are theorizing a 4th Matrix game and it is soon after this scene that a Morpheus character created in the video game meets Thomas Anderson for real with a red pill. It's a pretty good movie, very meta but very cool at the same time. Neo died in the original trilogy but the machines ended up reviving him and trinity (thus "Ressurections") because they came to the conclusion that a new matrix would need to be created. And how can you create a matrix where neo - who has already broken out before - is made sure not to break out again? Have him be a programmer of a trilogy of matrix videogames, have him have regular therapy sessions and be prescribed blue pills. It worked pretty well until it no longer did.
