    I use a lot of spoiler here for a better overview. In the spoiler of each act is the video and the timecode for the Quantum Ripples.

    TotalSwiftieI played through on Normal collecting as much as possible, initially.
    Is worth noting that I chose the Hardline choice in Junction 1, which

    After the credits, I simply used the Timeline feature on the pause menu to replay the sections I was still missing items in.

    I preferred the text guide on polygon:

    https://www.polygon.com/quantum-break-guide/2016/11/8/135620...

    Was hovering at 99% for 'Time Master' at this point.
    After I got everything except that last ripple, I simply went to Junction 1 and chose the PR choice.

    Loaded 4-2, accessed the ripple (popped Tossing Stones in a Pond), and changed the Junction 1 choice back to Hardline.

    Time Master immediately popped after switching back.

    A COMPLETE guide of all 200+ collectibles with timelinks can be found HERE.

    The collectibles, including 8 "Quantum Ripples" are found within Act 1 to Act 4 of the game. They can also be seen by using time vision in most instances. Upon picking up the piece of media, you will be rewarded with the achievement.

    You can replay chapters using the timeline at any point, but keep in mind that changing your choices within the Junctions will add new collectibles for you to collect, bringing your percentage down. NOTE: There are some uniquely titled collectibles depending on your Junction choices, but all collectibles should be in more or less the exact same place; but will have different contents. You can quit to the main menu once you collect them and reach a checkpoint save.

    Lastly, use the menu to check "Collectibles" where it'll show your collectibles for each Act/Part so you can easily keep progress.

    Alternatively, please see this video which is the beginning to the collectibles guide video playlist:

    Hatred ProphetVery much appreciated the guides. I found all of the ripples and it shows 8/8, but the achievement didn't pop and shows up as 88% complete, because of course it does.
