AFAIK, that subplot serves absolutely no purpose for the overall plot of the game. Ruvik takes over the Beacon Mental Hospital, setting up for the beginning of the game.ġ. Leslie is Jimenez's latest test subject, and his powers would enable Ruvik to get back into the physical world, possibly by swapping minds. Ruvik is chopped up and plugged into the machine you 'fight' at the end. They work together for some time, with the doctor supplying people for Ruvik's experiments, but Jimenez publishes Ruvik's research under his own name and then betrays him to continue Ruvik's research on his own. He catches the attention of Marcelo Jimenez, the doctor who runs the Beacon Mental Hospital. Ruben, now calling himself Ruvik, makes progress on his research, exploring the limits of human psychology and linking minds together. After some time, he kills his parents and assumes control of their fortune. Laura dies, Ruben is severely scarred and hidden by his father in the basement. Some villagers are angry at the Victorianos for 'stealing their lands', so they burn their barn with the children inside. He lives with his parents and sister, Laura. Ruben Victoriano is a medical genius, but very weird. I think Ruvik transferred his consciousness into Leslie's body, so in the end, ruvik was never really killed, and now Leslie/Ruvik is still In charge of the STEMworld. Shinji Mikami is still the master.ĮDIT: for anyone who is interested. Sure it wasn't scary in the traditional sense but I was on edge the whole time I was playing this, which is more than enough for me. In one of the recording, as I recall, he mentions his safe getting stolen. The boxman, or the keeper was Ruviks secrets. The alter ego, sadness over his sister, heresy, trauma, etc. Like I said, it's connected somehow.ģ.Each monster represented some aspect of ruviks sinful, twisted and tortured mind. Plus, sebastian seemed pretty close to finding out what happened to his daughter. they have also been following Sebastian since kidman knew something about him and was assigned to him. Kidman worked for someone, or a group of people who were obviously aware of the whole situation with Ruvik. and since the ending implied that Sebastian hadn't existed the fantasy world, it's possible that they'll explore his past and sins in the further games(if there will be any.)Ģ.

His daughter was obviously connected to all of this, since for some reason his wife,Myra, was kidnapped once she came close to finding why her daughter was killed. Plus, above everything else, Ruvik's intelligence far exceeded everyone else's so it kind of makes sense.ġ. Ruvik was hooked to the machine as the main test subject, so his mind was a gateway for others, which explains why he was the strongest of them all. The Doctor betrayed Ruvik and took credit for his accomplishments. Ruvik and the Doctor were working on a project called STEM, which would allow them to link different minds together.
