KCD Lead Roasts Dragon Age: The Veilguard Over Daily Active Players Comparison

Expert Verified By

A 7-Year-Old RPG Has More Players Than Dragon Age 4!

Story Highlight
  • The Warhorse Studios co-creator and Kingdom Come Deliverance lead has roasted Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
  • He compared KCD’s high daily active player count on Steam to BioWare’s AAA RPG in a subtle jab at BioWare.
  • Most users on the tweet have congratulated the Kingdom Come Deliverance team for still performing well.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard has become one of the most controversial titles to launch this year. It featured an allegedly stale and ‘super woke’ story that rubbed gamers the wrong way. However, players are not the only ones who have called out BioWare over the RPG’s poor sales and ratings performance, as many devs in the industry have also joined in on the memes from time to time. 

Now, Warhorse Studios co-creator and Kingdom Come Deliverance lead, Daniel Vavra, has also taken a jab at Dragon Age: The Veilguard over both games’ daily active player comparisons.

Why it matters: Kingdom Come Deliverance having more daily active players than Dragon Age: The Veilguard suggests the former RPG is performing better than the latter despite being 7 years old.

Daniel Vavra, the Kingdom Come Deliverance lead has roasted Dragon Age The Veilguard over having less daily active players.
Daniel Vavra, the KCD lead, has roasted Dragon Age: The Veilguard over having fewer daily active players.

Taking to Twitter, Daniel Vavra teased BioWare by comparing KCD’s 7.6k daily active players with Dragon Age: The Veilguard’s 4.6k figure. He claimed that a 7-year-old RPG was doing better than what was supposed to be a successful AAA sequel to one of the most popular franchises.

The reception to this tweet has mostly been on Daniel’s side, as many gamers also joined in to congratulate Kingdom Come Deliverance. One user said:

‘KCD is also a story-driven game, everyone who wanted to play it had 7 years to do it.’

However, some users pointed out that KCD often goes on many sales, and hype around KCD2 has also helped it out.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard
Dragon Age: The Veilguard is already having a 30% off deal after selling poorly.

Warhorse Studios is currently prepping to release the Kingdom Come Deliverance sequel after enjoying critical success on its first game, which is arriving on February 11th, 2024, for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S.

Do you think Dragon Age: The Veilguard has failed to hold up to a 7-year-old RPG based on active players, or is Daniel Vavra exaggerating? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below, or join the discussion on the official Tech4Gamers forum.
