Just started these books last weekend, and am starting on the third now. So far these are pretty fun reads. Haven’t read the thread, skimmed briefly a few weeks ago.

I was a little worried during the second book that this was going to be a lot like the Cradle series, in the sense that the main character is leveling up and continuously getting stronger while seemingly not being in any real danger. While that does appear to be the case here, the author has done a good job of making the world (universe) and game show incredibly interesting. Grinding and leveling up is fun enough, and the boss battles are cool, but the game itself and the universe that spawned it is what’s got me intrigued the most now.

Enjoying it so far!

Word of advice, stick with 3. I believe everyone struggled with it ( I know I did). It's at least better than an ICE book ;)

The books open up pretty quickly to the bigger universe happenings.

There's also plenty of danger, everyone in the story including Carl and Donut is often put into positions of real danger. I think you're right that Book 1 and maybe portions of Book 2 felt like no real danger for Carl and Donut, but that changes.

huh? Prepotente sees Carl more as a mom replacement/friend. No idea where you are getting the cum guzzler part.

this. Remember Prepotente was a garden variety goat until he took the pet biscuit and became sentient/a player.
If you've ever been around goats, they are fucking nuts.

Was this part not in the book? This is how the audiobook ends. Also has Carl drinking a ton of splooge going into the final battles.

GenCon yesterday was NUTS! An actual tornado hit the venue and water was pouring in from the ceiling.... THEN Jeff Hayes, the voice actor for Dungeon Crawler Carl, came over the loudspeaker as Princess Donut to reassure us we were okay. He followed it up with a "level collapse" announcement...

You realize it wasn't literal cum right. It was the name the AI gave the weird food/potion to let them breathe. Matt just milked that joke til the end.


Also, there is nothing going on besides being bros. There was a whole thing with Pony talking about making his gf sentient.
