Just finished episode 1. It says I left evidence of snooping in the garage, I didn't think I did.
I rewinded after everything in there. I rewinded so I never opened the cupboard with the TV in it, I left the washing machine off, so I never turned the gun rack light on, I rewinded so the files didn't fall down into the....oil spill?

Anyway, I thought I caught everything? It had a picture of the files in the spill for the choice, is it a glitch?

Also I am intrigued as to how opening the cupboard has consequences when you can just close it. Unless closing is the same as rewinding.

Currently deciding whether to buy the season pass. The writing wasn't brilliant, but I enjoyed the game.

Yeah I did, I read up on the choices and got the impression it didn't count for the evidence part.

i think it counts,cause david will probably remember he closed his window and no bird was inside ;)

The evidence choice works by two factors: you cannot open the cupboard hiding the camera equipment unless you rewind the action and you cannot read the files unless you rewind that action. The washer, bird, and gun rack are irrelevant.

Yeah, I thought I did rewind both of those fully though. Maybe I messed up. :/

I don't know about your glitch, but I can clear this up. The note that opening it has consequences, only referes to Max now knowing there is surveillance in the house, so no matter if you close it or rewind, Max will always keep her knowledge of what's in there. Nothing else to it.

Ohhhhhhhhhh. I thought it meant leaving evidence of your snooping. Thanks.

Then how come at the end, it said most players didn't discover the evidence? Are you are really that incurious?

Opening the cupboard probably has consequences because the cameras catch Max opening them, unless you rewind

I don't know about other people, but I got all the info and left no evidence http://i.imgur.com/6fLANE6.jpg

You can see all the camera feeds in the house and I don't think there was one for the garage. Also, if there was, not leaving evidence wouldn't even be an option.

There is a camera in the garage. That's why opening the cuoboard has consequences.

Oh really? Where is it? Do you have a screenshot of its feed?

Also, if that's the case, why is it enough to not let the files lie on the floor, to get the "you didn't leave any evidence" ending? I'm pretty sure Max on video would count as proof she was there...

No evidence means David thinks his cameras are secret and his files haven't been rifled through. Max being in the basement isn't suspicious by itself. All she does is pick up some tools.

I'll keep that in mind for my current run, and I'll be sure to rewind first. :)

Ah okay, but it's in the part of the garage where the car is and not where the cupboard is. From that angle the camera wouldn't show if Max opened it or not.

Isn't that Max we see in the background?!
