Well.... it's more Shadowrun than Red Dwarf... but a bit of both.
It's more a simulation that's so lifelike that it's impossible to tell apart from reality. To the point where reality itself seems false once they're out of it. Inside the system, they die and respawn over and over again, finding out constantly that what they find is reality, is really just the same simulation they died in. A bit like Inception, come to think of it. They then get dumped into reality convinced it's still a simulation they have to escape from, leading to insanities such as attacking a combat cyborg, or throwing themselves out of a window in despair at not being able to escape from the cycle.
I think there's a reason the other popular virtual reality system includes 'specifically virtual' queues (IIRC).
If you've seen Episode 3 of GiTS 2nd GiG, you know what a Puppet Party is. It's the best way to speak anonymously.
