The Evil Within plot explaination please (SPOILER ALERT)

[Wild Card (와일카드)]

I've just watched thru the whole walkthrough videos.. and there are a few things left unexplained... could somebody ellaborate on some of these unfinished story of the game?

who exactly is Kidman? whom does she work for?

was everything a part of dream? if so.. how did Seb fall into sleep in a first place?

Leslie "transformed" into something else..then at the end he walked out as like nothing happened? could he be possibly Ruvik?

I'd appreciate any constructive comments or opinions!

Kidman isn't really elaborated on. Probably saved for DLC.

Everything was the dream. The only real part is the ending, when he finally wakes up. They don't go into detail on why and how Sebastian was chosen. I am guessing they chose people who had traumatic stuff happen so they are much more susceptible to the STEM project's clustering of memories. But then, that would mean Joseph and the others were picked for specific reasons too, which isn't elaborated on.

Correct, it's implied that the syncronization worked, and Ruvik and Leslie are one in the same. Ruvik successfully "escaped" as sebastian did.

Sebastian was chosen because he, like Myra, had gotten too close to discovering the project. That's the whole reason that Kidman was assigned to monitor him and eliminate him if he found out the truth.

As for "what was real", it seems pretty clear to me that Ruvik stabbing him with the STEM was "real"; that seems to be the point that Sebastian and everyone else enter the dream. I guess that being part of the mind-fusion gives Ruvik limited ability to affect the real world. What isn't explained is why Kidman is both inside and outside of the dream, and unaffected by Ruvik's manipulation of their will (the noise).

why Ruvik's brain was chosen as the 'host' for STEM?

The story does seem to leave some odd questions. I mean when did Sebastian and that get put into the STEM system? Was is it before we even started or when they arrived at the hospital. I assumed it had to be before they arrived because obviously Ruvik is just a brain so he wasn't going scissor man in reality like we saw so they must have been in the STEM system from the absolute very beginning so what confuses me the most is who massacred everyone in the hospital?
Did Ruvik do it when he became Leslie at the end or did the people Kidman was working for do it?

My main issue with the story was the predictable twist that they were in those tubs, I mean you could see it coming from the first time you saw one of them, so how Sebastian was startled by it at the end I don't know.

I wouldn't mind unanswered questions but these just seem like plot holes because it makes no sense when you think about it.
