The Painter – 100% Completion
Like The Hostage, this chapter of Detroit: Become Human requires multiple playthroughs to unlock 100% on the flowchart. The good news is, nothing you really do in this chapter will hurt anything that happens later in the game, it’s merely a buildup chapter for Markus’ future development. There are a couple of things that are easy to miss along the way, though. To 100% this chapter, just play through it normally and go through all of the different options. There aren’t any real variations until after you serve Carl breakfast.
Activate Birds
Make sure to drop by and activate the birds in the main lobby. This will tick of this marker.
Carl Notices Markus’ Clothes
This option can only be triggered if the protesters from Shades of Color tried to rough up Markus.
Read North Pole Russia/Life on Titan
Look for this magazine in the dining room area. Read it and swipe through both of these articles to complete these two markers.
Find Something to Do
When looking for something to do, you’ll have a few different options. You must complete one of the sub-options in the categories listed below.
Read Book
Visit the bookshelf in the back of the room—near the piano—and read a book on the shelf there.
Play Chess

Play Piano

Paint from the Heart
When Carl asks Markus to paint from the heart, you’ll need to paint three different items in order to 100% the chapter.
Androids/Humanity/Identity
Paint all of three of the items (one thing from each category listed here).
