It used to be that Google would handle unstructured queries better for me, but lately things I'm looking for are, without explanation, invisible, or demoted to the fifth or sixth page. For me at least, the average search result quality from DuckDuckGo for me is better than Google. I think there three main difficult scenarios remaining with DuckDuckGo: 1) If your query is very abstract, and you don't know what to call the thing you're talking about, DuckDuckGo will less often be able to figure out what you're talking about. 2) If your query is not in English, Chinese, or Russian (and probably a handful of other languages which they/their vendors support well), it may have a hard time making your query general enough to return results. 3) If you really care about local results, you may not be satisfied unless you provide location information in the query, and maybe not even then.
