I too, do as much as possible before continuing the main story line, and I like to get all the collectibles that I can during a normal run through, but some games make it difficult to do that in the first pass.
Most games I start off with "hard" difficulty and may increase it as time goes on if allowed, but in order to get most achievements that involve different difficulty's, you have to pick one and stick with it.
I'm not one to just try and get all the achievements on the first pass, but if it's an open world game and it has free roam, I most likely will try to get as many as I can without a guide.
But like you said, by the time a main quest line is over, the game is pretty much over as well because all the side content has already been done. I'm one of those rare people who loves side content and my OCD will not allow me to skip one iota of it in an open world game. I usually will come back to a game again to try different load outs, play styles or if a new sequel is introduced, I will replay all of them again for the lore, which is what I probably will do with FC6.
Ah, that'ts where we differ. I don't really care about the achievements or steam trading cards or anything like that. I play it for the in-game experience.
I'm the same way with movies, take for instance Evil Dead Rise, I re watched all of the Evil Deads again, not because I don't remember them, those have been burned in my brain eons ago, but because that's just the way I am when it comes to something with a lore path.
I apologize for the novella.
Ah, I'm the opposite when it comes to movies and TV as well.
I don't think I've ever rewatched a movie. Not that I can remember anyhow. Only time I've rewatched TV shows is when a new season came out after a break and I can't remember what the hell happened in the previous one.
