      Skyrim lol. Everyone seem to have the habit of tearing a page of their journal out and leave it at random place. Also Metro Exodus, you can find notes throughout the open area and some will have journal with the writer’s final moment, like for example this.

      More of an indie game but Unturned did this, I believe in the Scorpion-7 building there’s a journal note that reads like this.
