"I feel many gamers moved to Free Fire after PUBG Mobile ban in India:" Ajjubhai of Total Gaming on the current Indian mobile esports scene

Q5. I am aware that a significant portion of your popularity stems from the mystery surrounding your actual identity. You are yet to reveal your face and full identity to fans ever since Total Gaming came into existence. Is there a reason why you chose to keep silent on who you are and where you come from?

Ajjubhai: I have another professional life apart from gaming. Also, people recognizing me at public spaces post face revelation will make things awkward for me. I’ll undoubtedly reveal myself once I further grow and pursue gaming as a full-time career option.

Q6. So tell me, why Free Fire? There are no shortages of sandboxed battle royale games for both the PC and mobile platforms in this day and age. What about Garena’s title makes you want to stick to it so much that you are continually creating new and unique content on it?

Ajjubhai: I initially wanted to play PUBG, but the phone that I was owning didn’t allow me to play that. So, I chose to play Free Fire, and now, it is more of an emotional connection for Free Fire. It was the first game that I ever played, and I just want to play that more often.

Q7. I would really like your thoughts on the Free Fire x PUBG Mobile debate. What would you say are the major differentiating factors between the two, especially in terms of gameplay and the unique audiences they attract?

Ajjubhai: Graphics put aside, I would say Free Fire is more accessible on most mobiles. Therefore, it has a very diverse audience set. Also, I do not understand this debate between Free Fire x PUBG Mobile, let people just play what they want to play. Personally, I would love to play all games to keep myself and my audiences entertained.

Q8. Free Fire is known to make some incredible collaborations every time the devs decide to add additional content to the game. How do you feel about the partnership that the game recently did with Christiano Ronaldo and One Punch Man? Which have been your favorite collaborations so far?

Ajjubhai: I really liked that collaboration. It is something I aspire to. I do not want to talk about one favorite collab, as all are close to my heart. They were different in their ways.

Q9. Apart from Free Fire and Minecraft, what other games do you enjoy? Is there a single-player title which you are very fond of?

Ajjubhai: Apart from Free Fire and Minecraft, GTA is something I enjoy playing. I have received a great response from the audiences for my 3-4 GTA videos. I haven’t played any single-player game, so right now, none.
