Thanks a lot!
After playing through the game without commentary I enabled commentary and managed to get 98% of this achievement. 98%! Sooo I knew I must have missed ONE!
Turns out that it was the same one Hanrec2 mentions above! The one behind the mine cart....

Just wanted to point that you don't have to wait for the commentary to finish, you can start the next one stopping the one that you were listening, the achievement will pop anyway.

This permanently glitched for me. I missed 13 in episode 2, and when I went back, it showed progress on the tracker, but then reverted to 98% when the directors shutup yammering.

Stuck at 98% on the last level.
It was in fact the Minecart...
Took a minute to register, but it got me to 100% and the achievement popped!

Went through it without a guide, 98%. Missed the 72% after chapter 3. Thanks to the video I realized I missed the one underwater in the caves.
Unlocked right after. Thank you!

WARNING: I feel the Devs made a huge mistake by allowing commentaries to be activated on a FIRST playthrough. The commentaries contain the Devs thoughts in the creation of the game and contain spoilers to the plot. The commentaries also ruined the immersion for me and would have seemed far less pretentious on a second playthrough.
My advice would be to use this excellent guide on a SECOND playthrough after you have completed the game with the voice overs first....you'll should get a better game experience if you do so....

You can just walk through each one without the whole thing so it should only take 40 minutes. Now if say you got 30/50 it saves your progress during your first run it saves those you triggered. Only problem is you don't know which ones you missed.

But if you think you know luckily there's a chapter select.

I didn't hit the 49% mark until I'd spawned into the third level. The one behind the minecart is the tricky one as its a place you don't visit on the regular play through. Level 4 as you climb away from the dock there's a cut back on the left.

I was told not too worry too much about the Director's Commentary, and therefore just beelined through it... Which caused me to miss three Commentaries. I missed the second one in chapter 1 (00:17), in the house (I didn't bother to enter apparently), and two in chapter 4: the one after the urn and the obvious next one, back up the hill and at the little photograph shrine (12:50) plus the one that's been described before, at the rails and the minecart.

I thought that I'd make one of my guides that tells, rather than shows in a video, where to find these things.

Chapter 1
1. As you begin, it's right there.
2. In the house near the lighthouse.
3-7. As you walk away from that house, keep left instead of going up the incline. You will find this one and if you walk all the way to the tires past the Golden Ratio sand picture you will find several more.
8. On the stairs going up as you look back the way you came.
9-10. After the stairs turn back you will find these one after the other.
11-12. As you make your way to the cave, there are two among the rocks and vegetation.
13. In front of the cave.
14. As you walk toward the red light after the cave.
15. Among the stonehenge looking rocks.

Chapter 2
1. As you walk along, you will get this one.
2. Stay to the left to get this one.
3. Keep going, once you pass the point where you see the ship on your right you will get this one.
4-5. Shortly after 3, when you turn around to go down the incline you can see both of these.
6. On the edge of the hole as you follow the path above it.
7. Near a building on the right once you get to the area with the beams all over the ground.
8. After you pass the second building on the right, this one is behind a free standing stone wall behind the house.
9. This one is inside the house, near the table.
10. As you go down the path behind the house, you will find this one.
11. Shortly after the steps begin, you will find this one.
12. In a boat skeleton on the way to the cave.
13. To the right of the cave entrance.
14. Just outside of the cave entrance.

Chapter 3
1. Once you are done looking up,it is right there.
2. Right before you get to the red lit cave.
3. After you turn around and go up, it's there as you approach the green lit cave.
4. After you get out of the water, it's in the tunnel.
5. This is the one you can see from #3. As you carefully make your way around the green room you will get this one.
6. This is in the next runnel.
7. Partway across the stone bridge you will find this one.
8. As you climb up higher to the left you will get this one.
9. At the beginning of the big mushrooms you will find this one.
10. At the beginning of the next mushroom area past the red candlelights.
11. As you enter the water, you will run right into this one.
12-13. You can see both of these once you get to the underwater roadway area.
14. As you come up out of the water, it's right there.

Chapter 4
1. Straight ahead you can see it.
2. Turn left out of the cave and you will see it near a painting that looks like a gate.
3. This one is on a narrow pier to the left as you continue onward.
4. This one is on the mountain near the cards and candles.
5. Back down on ground level, between a beam and the mountainside.
6. Keeping to the right you will come across this one.
7. On the beach before you get to the cement pier, you will see it.
8. As you climb the stairs from the beach you will see this one.
9. You will see #10 and in about that same area is a minecar track leading back in the direction you just came from. You will find this one next to a shrine at the end of the path.
10. You will come across this one (you just saw it) after you turn around to head back along the path you were just on.
11. As you go uphill a bit past the path split with the next candle, you will find this one.
12. When you climb the rocks up to the place where the cliff comes to a point, it is there.
13. Back down in the gully, near the word "drink" you will see it.
14. At the bottom of the steps, you will find this one.
15. Just past the gate is this one.
16. Up some stairs, you see this one.

My tracker got stuck at 38% and stayed there even though I had found every single one. After I went all the way through chapter 2 from the main menu selection it dinged.

Not trying to be a dick, but these directors are completely up their own ass. Yeah you made a game, it wasn't a "revolution". It hasn't changed gaming or "sound art". Listening to him take all credit for walking sims and the composer talk about sampling like she is some kind of new age Mozart is hardest part of this achievement.

Yeah i missed that minecart one even WITH this awesome guide. But i never, ever would have found it without it. Thanks so much for doing this. My advice to people is after you go up those stairs and get #8, the very moment you see the next one (which is #10) turn around and look to your right, you’ll see the minecar tracks where #9 is at the end beyond the minecar. You can’t see this one otherwise and in my confidence that these are so easy to spot, i went right by it and had to do Chapter 4 again.

Thumbs up on this guide!

Missing one? Chances are you're missing just one, and that's why you're here.

HERE'S THE BETTER GUIDE:

You don't have to follow any videos or read any other guides.

Here's all you need to now.

You will come across EVERY commentary by just seeing them in plain sight.

BUT, the one you'll most likely miss is in the FINAL CHAPTER near the end of the game, just before you ascend and start walking up the hill to the suicide tower, TURN AROUND right then, and follow the hidden RAILROAD TRACKS through the bushes to the end.

You're welcome.

So this guide video, done by pandorra PSN, gives you all trigger points and even the urns. It's been noted at times that these trigger points can be somewhat glitchy. So I would advise that you turn on the captions and let each point finish before triggering the next. That way, you ensure you're getting credit for each one.

To unlock this achievement, you need to trigger all 59 directors’ commentaries in the game. Start a new game and on the chapter select screen, check the box next to ‘Directors’ Commentary.’ Then select the first chapter, ‘The Lighthouse.’

The commentaries look like orange pieces of paper along your path. When you trigger one, it will turn light blue, and when the commentary ends it will turn white. All you need to do to trigger these is walk through them and you will hear commentary about the games’ development. Most of these are very noticeable due to that they stand out against the environment. Around 85% of these are along the path you walk but some you must search for (and by search, I mean walking a short distance along an alternate path that generally leads to nowhere).

While your progress is tracked with the achievement tracker, individual commentaries are not tracked, so if you happen to miss one (or more), there will really be no way to know which one it is. That is why it is recommended that before you complete each chapter to check your achievement tracker to make sure you have a certain percentage before continuing. It’s really the only way to ensure you have triggered them all in a chapter.

  1. Chapter 1, ‘The Lighthouse’: 15 commentaries, 25% at the end of the chapter
  2. Chapter 2, ‘The Buoy’: 14 commentaries, 49% at the end of the chapter
  3. Chapter 3, ‘The Caves’: 14 commentaries, 72% at the end of the chapter
  4. Chapter 4, ‘The Beacon’: 16 commentaries, 100% at the end of the chapter

NOTE: At the end of the game when you reach the top of the mountain and walk through the gate, this will trigger one last commentary that does not count for the achievement.

Once you have triggered all 59 commentaries, the achievement will unlock. If you are having any trouble finding any of them, refer to the video below.

Thanks to VidGamiacUnlocked for the video:

There are 59 developer comments in total in the game. But in order to activate them, you need to check the box above the comments in the main menu and start playing.
You will encounter many comments in a linear manner. And some comments will be hidden, but you will be able to notice them too.

Here is a very good video guide.

    The trophy is cumulative. If after passing it does not fall out, start from the beginning and follow the guide above. I personally missed one at the very end on the way up the mountain, where I had to turn around and go to the trolley.
    By the way, it’s not necessary to listen to comets in full.
