Seriously, it's just awful at this point. You look up something about a game, like "Oh, what are all the shotguns available in this game?" and it's just pages and pages of articles with stupid clickbait titles like "TOP 5 BEST SHOTGUNS EVER IN THIS GAME!" You can't just find a comprehensive list of the shotguns, and their stats or something. It's always articles, and the articles aren't even informative. Most of the time they have the most basic info that you can gather without even playing the game. "Oh, this shotgun is good in close quarters, and with this upgrade it can even kill enemies in one shot if you're close enough." Okay? That's like, the most basic info ever. It doesn't have anything specific. Finding actual guides and info and wiki's for games on Google is a fucking chore now, and I really am getting sick of it.

Edit: to those saying I don't know how to Google search, I do. That's not the point. I now have to narrow down and specify my search rather then those popping up. I find these multiple basic bitch articles annoying as hell, and a ton of them pop up when you search without specifying a wiki. I'm remembering back to the older days when you searched for info on games, and actual useful results came up. Now it's just gaming articles written by people who haven't even played the game, or have a base level knowledge.
