I think he's saying it's not that they know they're in a game, they just recognize that you, as the arisen, essentially reset the cycle and created a new iteration of the same world. It's a nod from the pawn that they remember your adventure with them, and a nod from the developers that you're enjoying the game enough to play ng+. Kinda makes you wonder if you just screwed up the whole point of the game lowkey lol. Though the "nice try though" thing seemed a little... uncalled for on his part though?

[@TheAlmBR]

Spoiler here, read at your own risk. Dragons Dogma has always played with the fact that there are different universes where the cycle continues to happen, but with minimal variations that cause great impact, such as Dark Arisen and Dragons Dogma Online. Dragons Dogma 2 is another universe from Dragons Dogma 1, but it is extremely similar as we even found a "Gran Soren" submerged in the ruins of a long-forgotten civilization. And we don't need to go far, if you've played the first one a lot or recently, it's easy to notice that the structure of the story is the same, with practically the same events happening in order, showing even more the similarity of this cycle with that of the universe of first game. The title of the game changes when making the game's true ending when we discover that in this universe we are able to eliminate God from the equation and bring to light what differentiates this universe from others, a cycle not controlled by a greater entity.
