harsly Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 I couldn't find a thread like this, sorry if I missed it. I've been playing a lot of Alien: Isolation for the past two weeks and the collectibles are so fun, I actually continued searching for them after I got the trophy (100/151 are needed for the trophy). The Nostromo logs are also very fun. So I was thinking, what are some other games that have fun collectibles, in your opinion? The only game I can think of besides Alien: Isolation that had extremely well done collectibles is for me The Last of Us, but then again, I haven't played many games.

loljens Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 I liked the getting the collectibles in Far Cry 4. It's a bit of an old game. But if you're really searching for collectibles, thats fun 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LunchCannon54 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 I thought Until Dawn dd collectibles well in the sense that they gave you hints on how to achieve certan things, as well as actually affect the story and dialogue to a degree. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xx_ForTheSesh_xX Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Personally, I like the Just Cause 3 collectibles, especially the Vintage Parts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_Bee Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 I may be one of the few to say this, but I actually loved the collectibles from The Puppeteer. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenpai Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 I actually think there are very few cases when gathering all collectibles isn't fun. But that's just me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrickenBiged Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 I thought Until Dawn dd collectibles well in the sense that they gave you hints on how to achieve certan things, as well as actually affect the story and dialogue to a degree. Dammit, ninja'd. I was going to say this. I loved the way that collecting or not collecting the collectables gave the character's a different amount of information and affected dialogue. If you missed all of them, you (the player) might have a vague idea of what was going on, but the characters would be clueless. If you got them all, then you'd know what was happening, and so would the characters, and they would react differently to things. It gave every collectible meaning, and finding them didn't feel in any way "tacked-on" to the underlying game. More games should take a lead from Until Dawn when it comes to collectibles.

HaSoOoN-MHD Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Gwent is an amazingly fun game so collecting the cards is fun. Shadow of Mordor makes collectibles fun by having your character(s) comment on the artifacts you find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carol Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 "Infamous First Light" was the first game that came to my mind. I had a blast going after the collectibles on this game and it actually was my favourite part of the game (when, in general, it's the most boring lol). I agree that "The Last of Us" also has very interesting collectibles. I've played this masterpiece so many times that, by now, I know the location of almost all of them without help of guides! I even ordered a firefly pendant for myself! Like some people are already saying, "Until Dawn" also has collectibles that are really well integrated in the game and you wil lose a lot of the experience that game has to offer if you don't go after them.

JaM Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Puppeteer Heads and Guided Fate Paradox equipments... sure most of them are things are next to useless and probably you won't be using most of the game but the details and the ridiculous animation of some stuffs when used are fun to see now and then...

madbuk Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 (edited) Harry Potter 1, 2, 3, 6, and, if I remember correctly, 5. Hogwarts was a joy to explore, with secrets hidden behind moveable bookcases, hidden in student desks, chests scattered across the rooftops for you to find once you acquire your broom. 3 was the best in this regard imo - a lot more puzzles involved as well as simple exploration. Each collectible added to the lore of the Harry Potter world too (in the first 3 games, at least, not so much 5 and 6), but I must admit I never read any of it Edited January 5, 2016 by madbuk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheYuriG Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Iove getting collectibles in most games with map trackers when they aren't missable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowSigmaX Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 I don't mind getting the collectibles in open world games. When it comes to FPS games however it annoys me. I feel like it slows the pacing of the game down when I'm searching an area just to find Intel or gold item or whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Dark Mark- Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 .South Park The Stick of Truth!

skelfilegur Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Uncharted comes to mind, finding the treasures was pretty fun. I also enjoyed finding the collectibles in BioShock, since they add so much to the story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NerdRage04 Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 I really liked finding all the collectibles in the free roam parts of the LEGO games. All the puzzles are pretty creative, and playing as all the different characters makes it even better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KratosTheMighty Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 (edited) The Last of Us collectibles were pretty good, the majority of them added a little extra story bits. Ish comes to mind. Also, the survivalist notes were cool to find in Fallout New Vegas: Honest Hearts. He was a damn cool character.

pashtudari Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 I'll give some love to LA Noire. Not the golden film reels, although I didn't mind tracking those down, but the 30 Landmark Locations that are/were iconic and recognizable to anyone who knows anything about LA/Hollywood. These really added an authentic feel to one of my favorite games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
