All too common within attention economy for people to go for the more popular choice.
Search engine algorithms tend to make things even worse.
But there are games out there that might not even have wikis if Fandom didn't make the barrier of entry so low.
What games are so small as to not be capable of generating a non fandom wiki, but are large enough that the wiki is not completely empty and factually incorrect?
Well old games like The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing: Final Cut or Moero Chronicles.
Neither of these where completely empty when I found them. Been updating them and filling some gaps in the wiki for the fun of it.
Many would consider both of these games "dead" by many metrics but people can still buy them, play them and have fun with them.
And wiki.gg wouldnt host them?
