I have a love hate relationship with IGN. While I hate there pandering, ass kissing, etc…. They are a spectacular source for game walkthroughs.
Is there a website out there that is really good with walkthroughs? I would rather use a website that doesn’t tow the party line and is respectful to the fans. I know having your cake and eating it too.
I would use gamefaqs but they are lacking in the visual department and hyperlinks aren’t really their thing.

I usually reference fan-maintained wikis, so the domain varies per game (Borderlands, Witcher, Dragon Age, etc).
I don’t typically use a “walkthough” per se, but I often reference wikis for details about a specific quest (what happens if I choose one option vs. another), details about a specific item (list all the possible attributes of a weapon, where it can be found, for example.), maps, and even reported bugs.
Generally these wikis are all about the game, no fluff.

Prima Games
Fextralife
Neoseeker
GamesRadarIf I can think of more I’ll be sure to add them!
