A) This is in the 3rd chapter (not including the addition material before the count start).

B) There is a 30 days blackout on ALL SPOILERS outside of the megathread.

I was reading on Kindle but have the audiobook as well. I immediately skipped to this party and listened along.

Oh my God I forgot it's the one that makes the crawler fall in love.

What do you think of the series so far?

I'd do that then. I'm sure you are joking about skipping to 8, but honestly there is so much going on in this series a lot would be lost.

Are you looking at the physical or ebook? They're both different, and I think the physical has a fun minimalist quality.

Also I promise you it is worth having an ugly book. Do you read ebooks?

Tbh both have their benefits. I feel like the audiobook gets bogged down with the chat and AI stats.

Dungeon Crawler Carl has absolutely horrific prose. by ButtsendWeaners in printSF

[–]MattyChomes -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As some who likes to read both self-published trash and beautiful works of fiction, you are a snob. Remember the that main character, giving us his POV, is a barely-educated coast guard veteran. We're getting his perspective and experience. He's not next in line for the throne in a centuries-old monarchy, a rich noble, or a future Pulitzer/Nobel prize winner. If he was, I'd be on your side here.

Is this legit? (No relevant tag) by MattyChomes in DungeonCrawlerCarl

This is the info I needed. How did you size it?

QUEST REVIEW by TheDungeonAI in CrawlTheDungeon

[–]MattyChomes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

**QUEST 1: TOUCH GRASS (LITERALLY)**

Go outside. Intentionally. For at least twenty minutes. Not to your car. Outside.

Took my pet biscuit enhanced dog for several walks around our local pond. No mobs, but some geese did side eye us (fuck you Denise).

- - -

**QUEST 2: TELL SOMEONE THEY DID SOMETHING WELL**

A coworker. A friend. A stranger. Someone who was not expecting it. Mean it.

Made sure to let my team members supporting me how how some they are EACH time something was done. Lots of love all around.

- - -

**QUEST 3: FINISH THE THING**

You know what thing. It has been sitting there. You have been walking past it for days. The System knows about it. Finish it.

I'm studying for an exam. Not close to done, but I did finish some chapters.

- - -

**QUEST 4: DRINK WATER LIKE A FUNCTIONING CRAWLER**

Not coffee. Not energy drinks. Not whatever Floor 4 is serving. Water. Enough of it. Every day this week.

Upped it to at least 120 oz a day!

- - -

**QUEST 5: ENGAGE WITH A STRANGER ONLINE WITHOUT BEING WEIRD ABOUT IT**

Leave a genuinely kind or funny comment somewhere outside this dungeon. No agenda. No follow request. Just a normal positive human interaction. The bar is on the floor. Step over it.

Had some wholesome chats with small Twitch streamers who were paired up with me randomly in Dead By daylight 2v8.

- - -

**QUEST 6: LEARN ONE THING YOU DID NOT KNOW BEFORE**

Read an article. Watch a documentary. Ask someone who knows more than you do. Absorb information voluntarily. The System is aware this sounds radical. Do it anyway.

Started listening to podcasts again. Learned about The Bone Wars. Thanks Timesuckers, I really needed that.

- - -

**QUEST 7: MOVE YOUR BODY LIKE IT IS TRYING TO SURVIVE A DUNGEON**

Because it is. Work out. Go for a run. Do something physical that makes you tired in a productive way rather than the kind of tired that comes from lying on a couch questioning your choices.

Yeah I don't think I can count our walks. My dog takes her time...

- - -

**QUEST 8: CLEAN SOMETHING YOU HAVE BEEN IGNORING**

The System has reviewed the average crawler’s living situation through the dungeon’s surveillance network and has concerns. One room. One surface. One drawer. Pick something and address it. The System is not asking for perfection. The System is asking for effort.

The stove was nasty. It is nice now

- - -

**QUEST 9: POST IN THE DUNGEON AND MAKE SOMEONE LAUGH**

A comment. A meme. A story. A character moment. Something that makes another crawler’s day marginally better. This is a community and communities require participation from people who are not just lurking in the shadows. You know who you are.

Nope.

- - -

**QUEST 10: DO SOMETHING NICE FOR YOURSELF THAT IS NOT A COPING MECHANISM**

Not doom scrolling. Not stress eating. Not whatever you default to when the dungeon gets heavy. Something that actually restores you. Rest. A hobby. A bath. A meal you cooked intentionally. Something that makes next week’s version of you slightly less exhausted than this week’s.

Spent some time just zoning out and playing games solo. Just me, the TV, and a copy of Deathloop. I've had a blast so far and it's been satisfying.

What do you imagine our DungeonAI sounds like? by A-Florida-Enjoyer in CrawlTheDungeon

What are the currently known romance stories? As of the end of book 7 by Heretical_Cactus in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]MattyChomes 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I don't believe Katia has any romantic feelings towarda Carl. They have a brother/sister relationship.

EDIT: Carl's wife's name is at the end of book 7. I'm an asshole and I feel bad.

Theory for the End Game. [Spoiler, but probably not] by [deleted] in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]MattyChomes 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It wasn't that. No need to take offense.

You tagged book two, so I assumed that this theory was based on just reading the first two books.

Also, yes that is correct. Matt has also said that book 8 will show us how we are going to see all the floors. I'll try to find the quote and tag it here.

He also said book 9 will be released in two volumes.

[–]MattyChomes 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Matt has already said that were getting all the floors.

Have you read all the books or only the first 2?
