For many years playing video games has been a source of entertainment, social interaction, and personal development. People of all ages and walks of life indulge in playing video games. Super Mario Brothers was initially released in1983 and back then gaming was simpler and primarily single players. In modern times games feature high advanced audio, online multiplayer, chat features, and social networking to allow players to connect and collaborate.  It is noted that the global game industry generated close to $190 billion in revenue in 2024.

YouTube has become a huge platform for Influencers and Content Creators. They utilize the platform to share their ideas, connect with an audience, earn money, connect with sponsorships and much more.

Content Creator, Mighty Keef, utilizes YouTube and has close to 700K subscribers on his channel. He shares that he’s enjoyed gaming and was a competitor in fighting games since he was 15 years old. Attending tournaments and meeting other gamers inspired his gaming journey. Other creators in the gaming world such as Cory Xkenshin, Afro Senju, and Dunkey have been an influence on him as well. He shares that in the real-world actors Denzel Washington, Will Smith and Leonardo DiCaprio are a few of his favorites and if he had the opportunity to be cast in a marvel movie he would want to be cast as Blade or Nick Fury.

The Gamer shares although he enjoys playing many games his favorite is Final Fantasy. He shares he develops strategies depending on the game, because each game presents a new puzzle to be solved. Also, that everything is a learning experience, even losing, and that the only way to get better is to lose. He also shares that he develops game content frequently which can take anywhere from 4-8 hours to write the script, record it, and edit the video himself.

Mighty Keef’s YouTube channel has caught the attention of several promotors and sponsors offering advertisement opportunities to work with such as Nintendo, Microsoft, Sony and more. He’s also had sponsors request that he attend gaming events such as The World Expo in Osaka Japan Evo 2024 Las Vegas and Avatar Ubisoft in Sweden. He’s very thankful that the YouTube platform has opened many doors with opportunities for him.

Mighty Keef’s advice for new content creators is to be consistent even if you don’t get views for a while. This journey takes time so enjoy the ride.
