Chapter Organization
A lot of video games are broken up into logical chapters and sections that you can actually load to play or replay whenever you want. This is not one of those games.
The chapters are broken up into sections, and to denote this and make this walkthrough logical I designate the key subsection as the subchapter heading - thus below you see that chapter one is "Chapter 01A: Defiers of Fate" and then the next logical part is "Chapter 01B: Another Rebellion."
There are actually subsection titles that appear in between these two areas in the chapter, but they are not really significant in the sense that they deserve their own section - they are inclusive to the subsection that is included under the logical heading of the subsection that begins that part of the walkthrough.
There is a logic to this, and it will start to make sense as you review the Events menu in your data journal. Lumping the smaller subsections together into a single subsection just makes more sense from a practical approach. It also makes it easier if you need to replay a section if, for example, you did not catch all of the dialogue, since we are making new saves to represent each subsection as we progress.
The first chapter is largely the lore and back story, the tutorials, and getting to know the main characters who you will be playing as, and leveling. If you follow each section you will note that any special items, treasure balls, and save points are noted.
Please be aware that there are Achievements/Trophies in the game that rely upon you having retained certain items or completed certain tasks. I indicate those in the body of the text for each section, but there is also an Appendix in the back that covers the Achievements and Trophies as well.
