I agree. While Discussions presents a modern UI, the Forum has a better structure and better tools. To me, when we combine the Forum and Discussions, I'd suggest it should to be the Forum itself but with the Discussions UI. It should also support the same theme as the rest of the wiki does, and maybe even CSS can be supported. Using the category preferences, you can effectively make Discussions structured if you want. I feel it is not without merit in its current layout, seeing as you can effectively have either form you desire as opposed to only one. My main issue is the dearth of features & wikitext.

It's for a PC game, so mobile-friendliness is hardly even a selling point for us, certainly not enough to outweigh things like not supporting wikitext. My Home Wiki also covers browser games, & you’d be surprised at how many mobile views we get. It’s not a majority to be sure, but I would advise you to ask FANDOM Staff for access to Quantcast data about your Wiki; you may be surprised just how many mobile viewers your Wiki receives, even for a browser game (that browser game got a mobile app? ;)). My Wiki always tries its best to look good across all skins, although unfortunately Monobook has fallen a bit by the wayside.
