Fandom/Wikia takeover made the Wiki garbage

[Lucien Lachance]

Has anyone had severe issues navigating the ETG wiki ever since they transferred to Wikia/Fandom? I can't even search for certain things using the exact names of guns/items. Such a terrible platform to host anything from, I'm assuming they didn't have a choice in the matter otherwise they would've never accepted this FANDOM garbage.

Looks like it's made all the search case specific and removed some of the fuzzy logic matching

I'm imagining you must be running adblock or you'd be getting loads of pop ups, certain Fandom wiki's I've seen using steam browser were literally unusable lol. They've set the bar really low in my opinion.

A lot of times I'll search for something on the ETG wiki now and it goes to a completely different page style with bare bones aesthetics unlike the cleanliness of the homepage from the non-fandom days (the page layout for items/guns/bosses). A few other pages were doing goofy things too just can't remember what it was.

I'm ONLY talking about the reduction in search quality.

The "other page look" is the mobile look and is now the default, each page has to manually have a non mobile page made for it. I've been watching the pages slowly get corrected over time.

Whatever it is it's disgustingly ugly. If they're gonna go outta there way to destroy the old page layout which was perfectly fine they should just make a mobile version and not make PC users succumb to ridiculous clunky mobile layouts. Just more FANDOM garbage.

Yes, I really hate FANDOM. I'm absolutely giddy about blocking all their malignant ads and crappy news/drama/culture articles.
