Does everyone just think they can make a living playing games? Trying to search for Diablo 4 info gets you nothing but mountains of useless clickbait youtube videos. Gotta waste my time jumping thru the video just to find out the guy is dumber about the game than I am.

Like I get it, YouTube is the only place you can monetize your "game knowledge", but still.. Why are there are only like two sites with build guides and info? And those two sites don't even have community builds, its just a couple guides written by some l33t dude we are suppose to trust. Why is there no useful discussion forums, discords, or at least something not in video format? If people care about becoming gaming influencers so much why can't we at least come out with a new monetization platform that doesn't suck and has a dislike button.

Anyone else sharing my rage?

Yes, crappy advice on websites like gamesvideodiablo.com are at the top of search results somehow. Luckily established sites like maxroll and icy-veins are out there. You still have to watch who submitted stuff. Feel sorry for anyone that has to wade through the gamesgamerhintsnews.com sites.

I generally stick to those 2 websites and just specify them if I'm searching for something on Google. Worked good for the altar of lilith maps and character builds.
