You are preyed during the first chapter and part of the second and third chapters, but you do gain weapons in the second chapter onwards. Save for those starting chapters, on which it'd be wiser to be stealthy or flee if there's too much danger, Sebastián (the main character) gets competent enough to fend off the enemies (and sometimes, you're forced to fight a huge bunch of them to progress). Like I said, the game starts very cautious and slow, and progressively keeps trading that sense for a more visceral and relentless gunplay. That's not to say the sense of horror is lost, as every chapter always brings a nice atmosphere that keeps thing steady.
There's also a bizarre upgrade system, on which you can improve several different stats, like Sebastián's characteristics (think of stamina, health and the likes), weapon modifiers, the amount of items you can carry and so on. The more you upgrade, the stronger Sebastián is.
