I realized why I love only playing games where you collect stuff and I think it's because I have a natural instinct for gathering.
Anytime I try and not play games I want to start to collect rare and esoteric items that cost a bunch of money so funny enough these games actually stop me from spending money on odd shit.
Though I do have one guilty pleasure of a collection.
I love to have voice actors of popular characters from different games sign their autograph with their character on it. I just like to collect them and potentially my kids could sell it for money in the future probably not worth anything but still.
