Wait wait wait hold up. This ends up being a metaphor for the AI, yes. But is it also for Carl who is a Primal? Hiding in plain sight behind a mask. Where does Carl start and the person they see him as end?

I think if someone other than Donut told Carl that he was important to them and they loved him very much and would be hurt to see him die because he is their friend he would stare at them for ten seconds then walk away as quickly as humanly possible

Hmmm the fic ideas are coming to me now…

DCC doodles ~✨ (Because there are far too many things about this series I want to draw)

There's some later book mildly spoiler-y ones under the cut

Are there any queer or queer adjacent content creators talking about dungeon crawler Carl?

[acewithapaintbrush]

The thing about Dungeon Crawler Carl that I love is that you can NEVER predict where the story (or rather a certain storyline) is going and I'm not just meaning that in a "oh the author knows how to do plot twists really well" kinda way, no it goes beyond that like crazy!

There will be a plot point and you worry about it or anticipate the cluster fuck that is about to drop on you and it just... doesn't????

(no spoilers btw, none of this happens but stuff like it):

You worry about that debt the God is about to come and collect and there is no way around it? Yeah no, jokes on you, the God decides that it would rather go to a party, you're off the hook. A character is slowly being killed by a mysterious poison and there is no antidote? Hey look what this random ass side-character just found in that cave over there, looks like a magical healing potion. To get to the next level you have to kill that 4000 lvl boss? Hah there is no way you can, oh look at that! It died. An anvil fell on its head before you even got here.

When you put it like that it sounds like Matt just sometimes wanted the easy way out but it's not that at all. The "easy way out" is sometimes so much harder than the original plot line would have been or leads you down a path you never imagined for the characters.

These books constantly keep you on your toes (much to the AI's enjoyment *wink wink*). They constantly ask you: You think you know where this is going? And the answer is always: No you fucking don't!

And it's just so bloody fun!

Designs or something idk I’m tired

Got something cooking in my brain about gender in DCC. Needs to bake a tiny bit more I think

[unpretty]

i feel like a big part of the appeal of dungeon crawler carl is that it is fundamentally a story where a man is told "through complex legal and technological processes we have completely fucked over the lives of you and everyone you care about to enrich ourselves" to which the man asks "what if i killed you with bombs" and it turns out the answer is they forgot that was an option

DCC Carl is the Guy™ of all time. 6'3 ex-coastguard trained in hand-to-hand combat. Was 100% gonna fight Bea's rich lawyer dad for custody of her cat, Princess Donut. Religiously hits the gym 2-3 times a week. Is completely at ease saving the world in heart boxers and, when necessary, completely naked. Also embraces his luscious long hair. Has the uncanny ability to combine, bend, and break game rules to suit his needs. Despite his intelligence, still regularly falls back on "bomb the shit out of it" as a solution. Curses like a sailor. Says "I love you" with no hesitation. Has surrounded himself with competent, scary-ass women and when they go, "Carl you fucked up" his response is, "Yeah, I did. I'm sorry." Ultra daddy issues. Works hard to never become his father. The two times he prioritized ~sexy lady~ over survival he was literally charmed. A friend to everyone who has his and Donut's back, be they human, alien, sluggalo, goat, or sentient sex doll head.

Did murder a bunch of goblin babies though. And allegedly jerked off a crab.

Ah well. No guy's perfect!
