Hello. For those who have Darksiders II (you lucky *******s 
), are there collectibles and are they associated with any trophy/achievement?
), are there collectibles and are they associated with any trophy/achievement?
There are TONS of collectibles... Misc artifacts, Book of the Dead pages, a variety of relics. Some of them are traded for gold/money to buy weapons/attacks/abilities. Some of them are part of collection quests that lead to new areas in the game.
Overall there is just a lot of 'stuff'. Many of these collectibles are part of side quests and you cannot actually get them until you start the side quest process. Kind of hard to explain, but the side quests are triggered, whether it be by talking to a character or performing an act.
Definitely more collectibles in DS II than part I. For sure.

Hearing this makes me very interested in the game! I love earning achievements!

There are definitely a few trophies in terms of collectibles but they are not as tedious as some other games. They are pretty reasonable.

The Book of the Dead- you will need to collect 40 missing pages from the book
Mass Ruckus- you will need to either purchase or find/collect about 6 different elite items
The Secondary Adventure- not sure about this one but there might be side quests that require you to collect things
these are the ones I know so far
Achievements were revealed a few weeks ago.
I have a press copy for Darksiders Dungeon that I'm using to create the walkthrough.

No matter what game it is there will always be people who get an early copy and reveal a little info about the game.

Collectable related achievements, and collectibles in total.
Collectables I am defining as things sprinkled throughout the game world, in limited quantities and specific locations. So gear would not be one of these things, but Book of the Dead pages are.
Achievements
1)GnoMAD: Find all of the gnomes. There are 4 in the entire game, and hidden very well. Obviously an easter egg.
2)The Book of the Dead: Turn in all 4 chapters of the Book of the Dead to Vulgrim. There are 40 pages in all, 10 pages per chapter. Each page collect adds to the current chapter, no matter what order they are collected. Sell the chapters to Vulgrim to gain access to special Treasure Vaults/Tombs.
3)Antiquing: Collect all 30 lost Relics and sell them to Ostegoth. There are three kinds, with different awards given for returning them. There are 15 Etu-Goth, 10 Renagoth and 5 Khagoth.
4)All You Can Eat Buffet: Collect all of the Stonebites strewn throughout the game and return them to Blackroot. They emit a "sound aura" that Death can hear when nearby, and can be collect with the pistol Redemption once Death gets the Lurestone from Blackroot. There are 34 Stones of Mystics, 25 Stones of Power, and 10 Stones of Resistance, making for a total of 69.
There is one more achievement that if you want to earn honorably, requires that you collect 10 Soul Arbiter Scrolls in order to navigate through. However, you do not need to collect them in order to progress through the labyrinth, as the directions they give are the same no matter the game, so the directions can just be looked up. The achievement is earned after progressing through the maze, not for directly collecting the scrolls.
I've Brought you a Gift: Defeat the Soul Arbiter at the end of the Soul Arbiter's maze.
In addition to the 10 normal scrolls, there are 10 Sacred Soul Arbiter Scrolls, which are sometimes not collectibles at all, but writing of directions on walls. Again, these are are the same no matter what, so they can be looked up instead of collected. There is no achievement associated with it, and they lead the way to secret treasure rooms in the Soul Arbiter's maze.
That is all of the ''Collectible" achievements. Hope this helped!

Amazing information. Thanks
One question. Do some side-quests become inaccessible at some point as you progress through the story?
Or are they all available even after finishing the game?
Also, any missable trophies/achievements?

All side quests should be available, not that any of them are hard to miss. The only thing that becomes inaccessible, as far as I can tell anyway, is a single area in the Foundry. The only collectible thing in there is a loot chest, so nothing becomes impossible, and you if you do miss the chest it isn't a big deal.
As for missable achievements, no there isn't. If it was possible to get, and you missed it the first time through, it can be grabbed at the end. However, some achievements can only be unlocked by playing a New Game+, so you will have to play again anyway.
Is that what you were wondering?

I can confirm that all side (secondary) quest can be obtained because you can use portals to reach other realms if unlocked. As a matter of fact some of the side quests including some of the collectible trophies are spread across realms (not all in 1 realm).

Once you complete the game.... Is it free roam or does the game end?
