TLDR The film's skeleton is predicated upon the conspiracy theories that were manufactured by sci-fi writer Philip K. Dick, beginning with his 1977 speech in France titled, "If You Find This World Bad, You Should See Some of the Others" The film attempts to dangerously convince viewers that simulation theory is actually real, which requires us to question our very existence and reality. The problem with the theory, is that these examples provided throughout the documentary, are examples that these gamers have themselves created, so of course their theories make sense.via the TL;DR App
