And on that note, I've completed the Present day Chapter. This was a fun one. You don't gain levels in the conventional way. The chapter reminded me of a fighting game, where you select the boss you want to fight. Once in battle, each opponent has certain moves that your character can learn once the boss uses them on you. Sometimes, you have to bait the boss to do them by using certain moves at specific spots on the battlefield. Once learned, the moves are added to your arsenal and you can proceed to fuck up the boss. One piece of advise, you can only heal by using the move "Focus" so make sure you move away and heal up when needed as your HP does not increase at all during the chapter.
Really awesome chapter. Even some of the music reminded me of something I heard in Street Fighter 2.
Next up, the Near Future Chapter.
