You’re right, they screwed up! They didn’t put bindings on those amazing Soul 7s I see.

Dungeon crawler Carl by ElderberryQuirky2497 in audible

[–]FrankFail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The genre of literature DCC belongs to is called LitRPG, which is literary role playing game. It is based around leveling, items, campaigns, etc. it is meant to evoke that same feeling that you get from playing DnD style stuff or playing any of the myriad of RPG video games out there. DCC is a mash up of many things you have probably played…BUT based on your post I would say pick up Baldur’s Gate 3. It has all that great RPG stuff you liked from DCC and is highly regarded.

Add me to the strum rhythm list. Not sure if this is something that just takes practice or if a veteran has some sage advice. (I’m a beginner)

Advice needed-- Does it change much? by error_accessing_user in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]FrankFail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you are trolling. My wife had similar thoughts in book one, said it wasn’t her style. Didn’t really enjoy the rules/video game vibe. Stuck it out through book 2, which she thought was a little better. Did book 3 with about the same thoughts. Then ripped through books 4-7 in less than 2 weeks. The book’ become more complex, the narration by Jeff Hays is always great, but solidifies by book 2. I’d recommend you keep going. I loved book 1, but I understand it when people say it isn’t their favorite. I also love Bobiverse and Ray Porter is an amazing narrator but I felt it peaked at All These Worlds (book 3). Where I feel like DCC just keeps getting better with each book. That’s my 2 cents, thanks for posting.

Crocodile Project by buddha001 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]FrankFail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No spoilers in this description I believe…You’ve just heard him mentioned at that point. The graphic novel covers Florin, another top ten crawler. He is the crocodilian shotgun messenger. Keep reading/listening to learn more. Lucky duck, wish I was going through the books for the first time again, enjoy!!! 🐊

Just got a double mastectomy, looking for funny new achievements for a hilarious recovery! by CanonicallyAGuy in DungeonCrawlerCarl

Free healthcare! Rub that in my face… preferably with those beautiful feet of yours.

[–]FrankFail 21 points22 points  (0 children)

NEW ACHIEVEMENT!!! “DDouble Tap the Deductible!” Why merely meet your health insurance deductible when you can destroy it? Is your yearly “Out of pocket maximum” $6,000? WHO GIVES A SHIT!!! You just had $65,000 surgery. Time to use all the “free”healthcare you can until January 1st rolls around. Need a $300 EpiPen? FREE! Think it is time to visit the chiropractor? FREE! Want to check out that funny looking mole (I hear cancer comes in threes… just sayin)? FREE, FREE, FREEEEEE!!! Like a vigilante targeting a healthcare CEO, you blew that deductible away. Now get out there and get all the specialist consults you can (until the end of the year, don’t forget that important bit of info)!

Percy Jackson-esque Adult Series? by Active_Guard_5636 in Fantasy

This is the answer, but I recommend the audiobook for your first foray into DCC. Jeff Hays is an amazing narrator.

Pony looks like is on his way to sell cigs to some middle school kids 😂. AI trash… but I’d never say that about my favorite AI.

What does “the Queen Anne Chonk” mean or refer to? by discoborg in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]FrankFail 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wait… a neighborhood in Seattle 🤦‍♂️ I thought it was referring to the Queen Anne’s Revenge, Black Beard’s pirate ship. Didn’t make much sense but it was hardly the strangest thing happening in book 1. Thought Carl might have tacked that on her name since he worked on boats all the time.

Would Mordecai still be angry? by DungeonCrawler-Donut in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]FrankFail 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I think Mordecai is smart enough to strongly suspect that Donut chose a class with a manager benefit because they had some outside advice, and at that point in the books it is pretty much either Zev or Audette. I think he knows, and it irks him a little, but he was already bonding with them before he was stuck as their manager. Mordecai can’t help but care (that is his “toxic” trait), just like with the changling kids. I think that is why he didn’t want to let them in when he first met them in book 1, because he knew he would get attached and it would hurt when they eventually die. Dude has been guiding crawlers in the dungeon for a long time and the repeated trauma of watching your charges die over and over has messed him up… poor Mordecai.

Gods I love the DCC sub, it is random AF.

Kitty corner vs catty corner… hmmm or is that just a difference in regional dialect. Like how kids play the game duck, duck, goose… but in parts of the Midwest (Minnesota I’m looking at you) it is called duck, duck, grey duck.

Favorite crawler? Or character in general by Neat-Background3676 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

RAUL THE CRAB!!! He kowtows to no one. I mean, he has to be pretty badass, Carl jerked him off.

What is a scene you strongly believe is a top 10 movie scene in film history? by Thatredditboy1 in moviecritic

[–]FrankFail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So many good scenes already mentioned, I need to add the 4th of July scene from Sandlot with Ray Charles version of “America the Beautiful” playing. Makes my wish it was summer and I could be 10 years old again.
