This Achievement Is Easily MissableIf you miss a collectible in a playthrough you'll have to re-collect all of them - even in NG+This Achievement will span the entire length of the game and require you to find all the
Journals and
Audiographs aboard the Dreadful Wale.
A Few Notes:
- If you're having trouble finding the books, buy the "
Dark Vision" power.
- A
Video guide is also available at the bottom of the guide.
- You can check what you've already collected by opening up the menu and going to
"Lore & Maps" they are ordered in the order you collected. The most recent being at the top of the list.
- I've used
Spoiler Tags to shorten the solution as much as possible and to prevent some spoilers
Read at your Own Risk!- I've added time stamps with each collectible to cover the video in case you are stuck finding them.
