"I hope Battlegrounds Mobile India returns soon": Free Fire content creator Amitbhai (Desi Gamers) on BGMI release, favorite streamer, FFWS, and more

Q. What do you think are the significant differences between the PUBG Mobile and Free Fire creators?

Amitbhai: In the PUBG Mobile community, creators are known for their entertaining talents or gameplay.

The main distinction is that on Free Fire, many creators have gone ahead and just done giveaways. In addition, when compared to PUBG Mobile, the Free Fire audience is younger.

There are only a few creators in Free Fire who are popular because of their gameplay.

Q. What has been your favorite collaboration that Garena did to bring characters in-game?

Amitbhai: Each Free Fire character has a unique talent, but I'd pick Chrono, based on Cristiano Ronaldo, the famous football player, as my favorite because of his exceptional skills.

Q. Team Elite and Galaxy Racer from India could not participate in the Free Fire World Series in Singapore due to covid restrictions. What are your thoughts, given that players from both teams are significant members of the community and close to you?

Amitbhai: I felt very sad for both the teams as they couldn't represent the country on such a global stage. I firmly believe they would have got laurels for the country as they have shown remarkable performance in previous tournaments such as the FFIC.

I have also been to Indonesia to participate in a tournament as an influencer. At that time, Indian teams were lacking in strategies, but now, the esports scene is totally different in India.

I have cast a lot of games and have got a chance to understand and analyze the game. Now, there is high competitiveness among teams, as every team has a fixed drop location, everyone avoids initial fights, takes different rotations. There is a role set for every team member, so things are pretty much set in stone.

Q: Have you ever thought about entering the esports scene along with content creation side by side.

Amitbhai: I've always wanted to be a content creator, which is why I haven't focused on the esports side of the game.

Actually, I used to play on my phone since internet connectivity at my location is terrible, and I also wanted to stream my gameplay. When I played on my PC through ethernet, the ping was 50, but it was 200 on my phone, which significantly impacted my gameplay and frustrated me immensely.

As a result, I've moved my focus to simply playing the game on PC due to the low ping. That's why I couldn't participate in the esports side because Free Fire is a mobile esports game. Although I sometimes play on mobile during invitational tournaments.

Q. Where do you see yourself in the next five years? Do you intend to focus on content creation, or is there another business plan or idea?

Amitbhai: I haven't thought much about the business side but am focusing on content creation. However, my new goal is to focus on solid content quality rather than running behind numbers.
