Heavy Rain Walkthrough and Guide

Arc and Divergence
The decisions you make in the game often cause the story arc to head in a different direction, and because of that this walkthrough is really just a general guide to the play - it will address many of the key points in the story, plot, and play, but your experience and conversations will differ from those I experienced by playing due to the huge number of divergence points.
Because of that I try to be very general in my descriptions when it comes to dialogue, only going into detail when those details are plot factors that you should have to reference as you play. In addition, I cover each split on a chapter by chapter basis but I do not try to include speculation on which ending a divergence necessarily leads to because, and I know this may be a bit frustrating, the decisions that you make in later chapters can and often does derail your plans to arrive at a specific ending.
If you plan to see all of the endings in this game, you are going to be replaying it from key chapters but that is not as hard as you might thing, since saving a replay when you begin it only impacts the chapters that follow it. Let me stress that - when you select a chapter from the chapter menu and choose to save the results of play those results only change the chapters that follow - so you can start at the chapter nearest the end to try a different outcome and only have to play till the end to get it, so that should be the strategy that you use when you go for the different endings.
