Ask HN: Has Google search got noticably worse recently?

I'm not usually on the bash Google bandwagon, up until very recently Google Search has worked perfectly well for me. But I'd say in the past month or two I've begun to notice that for some queries where I'm searching for something I know exists it just doesn't seem to work very well? Specifically this has been around looking for specific episodes of podcasts, youtube videos or news articles that I know exist and I know I'm using search terms that line up with what's in the descriptions/content of these media. The specific example that pushed me over the edge to write this was searching for a news article I know exists on Battlefield 1 sales numbers, instead google's showing me the standard stuff (wiki articles that don't have what I'm looking for) and telling me about battlefield V or the new battlefield that's about to release. I'm not sure what they're doing but it's starting to feel noticeably worse than it was before.
