How to unlock the Conscientious achievement

    [UPDATED 10.04.2016] - *THEY ADDED A RED EYE TRACKER FOR SCENES, IN THE EVENT YOU MISS A RED EYE YOU CAN SCROLL THROUGH SCENES AFTER COMPLETION AND IT WILL GIVE YOU A % RED EYE BELOW EACH SCENE. THIS CAN HELP YOU NARROW DOWN THE SCENE YOU MISSED*

    Looking at TA Statistics and doing some math, you can see that of the 1200 people who completed the story roughly 50% (600 people) haven't obtained the achievement in their first play through. And all the guides i've seen out there list only a few of the "most commonly missed" items & clues. Which is great, but if you're anything like me and have a tendency to miss one of the "easy" items, this doesn't help you much. To make matters worse, this game doesn't let you know which Scenes you missed a collectible which could force you to play the entire Episode again. So, I decided to make a checklist of EVERY item & clue in Episode 1. All 104 Red Eyes are listed and as a result is somewhat of a walkthrough for the game itself in order to describe accurately where Red Eyes' locations are.
    Warning I will try to be as spoiler free as possible but minor spoilers may occur.

    *CLUES & ITEMS are denoted by the RED EYE symbol appearing on screen*
    *YOU CAN Replay chapters and obtain missing items*
    *CHAPTER must be completed to register newly found items*
    *MISSABLE ITEMS are denoted as well as "Point of No Return" cut scene triggers which could cause you to miss missables.
    *RE = RED EYE*

    *SOME SCENES allow you to "run" / move faster by holding the "B" button.

    VIDEOS INCLUDED AT END - WALKTHROUGH ON TA HAS PICTURES ALSO

    FNSUITE GHOSTBeing somewhat of a perfectionist the negative vote had me go through the guide again. Alhough it was unmissable, I'm guessing the negative vote came from my incorrect copy & paste job of Scene 9 as the beginning of Chapter 4 rather than the conclusion of Chapter 3. It's been fixed now! So no more haters! :)
