>‘Dungeon Crawler Carl’ TV Series Based On Books Ordered By Peacock From Seth MacFarlane’s Fuzzy DoorLET'S FUCKING GOOOOOO WE DID IT REDDITTTTTT
>>221236211Hilarious how out of touch Hollywood is to think this will sell. A "bestseller" means nothing when the population no longer reads, this is niche, and the niche is unbearble Reddit pedophiles.
>>221236262Have u actually read it?
>>221237358What kind of faggot would read a book about a numale beta bitch going on a DnD adventure with his ex-girlfriend's cat? Oh, and he's a military ZOGbot so you know he can like fight and stuff! Fuck off, loser. This shit sucks. Deadpool tier trash for Reddit scum.
>>221236211This is one of the worst piles of slop ever written. Ready player 1 tier reddit slop. Should do great for McFarlanes fan base>>221237358Kek here's one of the illiterate redditors now getting offended.
>>221237472>>221237388You're both weird and offensive to human life
>>221237497>it's offensive to human life if you don't like garbage shit for idiotsFuck humanity then, you fucking faggot.
>>221236211>cat is named 'Princess Donut the Queen of Scrim'
>>221237511Back to the pits of hell demon, begone!
>>221236262first post was negative so i like it, if it was positive i'd hate it.
It'll probably do decentRed Rising tv show never ever
>>221236211
>>221237647Are you an incel that can't get pussy? I think you're lost
>>221236211>le randumb guy running around in his boxers blowing stuff up with his lul so random cat and heckin chungus raptor oh and foot fetish lolol!!111!!1!!these books are not good.
>>221237497>weirdIt didn't work in 2024, why would it work now, you castrated retard?
>>221236211>Live action litRPGAt the very least it'll be interesting to see how the litRPG genre fares as a live action western tv show.
>>221237738Damn dude you're so fucking weird you connect your own identity to political things.
>>221237703
>>221237800No, it's just evident the flavor of faggot you are.I guess your trash taste explains why you like the taste of cocks though.
>>221237839>I'm going to convert conservatives with this gay positive masculinity book about a cuckolded zogbot going on adventures with his ex-girlfriend's cat and not being bitter about it while he fights toxic incelsThe only thing he has actually succeeded at is grifting Hollywood morons into giving him a fat check. This success will be a monkey's paw, though, as the increase in eyes on his work will lead to him facing real criticism for the first time in his life and he's going to crash out and kill the small the audience he currently has by making them realize how lame they all are. Niche self-hating nerd shit like this can only thrive in the dark and the damp, like mold. Expose it to the sunlight and it will wither up and die. It's just genuinely fucking repulsive trash.
>>221236262>Hilarious how out of touch Hollywood is to think this will sell. >>A "bestseller" means nothing when the population no longer reads, this is niche, and the niche is unbearble Reddit pedophiles.You need to return your soda and 11 year old.
>>221236262Screencap this.
>>221236262the easiest way to have a bestseller is to have financial backers who buy/distribute it at publishing houses exactly like films
>>221238087Let me spell it out to you in clear detail since you are illiterate. 99% of American men do not read books, and of the 1% that does, 99% of that 1% reads old books that are a hundred years old or more. They don't read the crap you see on Amazon or at the front of a Barnes a Noble. So when Hollywood picks up the latest piece of shit Reddit novel like Ready Player One or this new crap, they are investing in something which is popular with maladjusted freaks who have terrible faggot taste. The "straight males" who are fans of Du geon Crawler Carl are faggier than any tranny. Imagine an entire book of the pegging scene from Deadpool, that's what Dungeon Crawler Carl is. Very much will enjoy this crap flopping.
>>221236211hope to god it crash and burns so hard nobody will ever want to adapt another litrpg.
>>221237497Lmao is that you Matt? Sounds like some quippy retardation hed write.
>>221238367Wtf is a litrpg? I hear redditors use that term all the time, but what does it mean? This is different than a regular fantasy novel? Is it like Western Isekai with the gay video game numbers and, "He has over one thousand health points and his attack is 378!" Number nonsense which makes no sense and breaks all immersion? Imagine if Frodo was like, "Gandalf can't beat the Balrog, he only has 999 health points while the Balrog's blade does 2000 damage points!"
>>221238471literature that contains elements of a role playing game.The characters have stats, levels, skill trees, loot, classes, etc.
>>221236211This was my first foray into lit-rpg and it was my last. It's like someone watched Sword Art Online then decided to make it for western audiences. I wouldn't expect the live-action movie to go beyond the third book, let alone the 2nd but holy shit have I started seeing so much astroturfing for this series. "Haha, Mongo is appalled!" or "God damn it, Donut!" is everywhere and it's fucking cancer. The series for all intents and purposes is reddit coded Andy Weir levels of writing that is cringe.
Sounds gay. Won't read. Won't watch.
ready player one all over again
>>221238522>The characters have stats, levels, skill trees, loot, classes, etc.That's awful. How did that catch on? How does that not break people's immersion? Do people in real life have stats? Can you determine the outcome of a boxing match based on the fighters skill trees and levels? So fucking gay. This shit is cancer.
>>221238699It's even worse, which is crazy. Ready Player One looks like toxic White male chuddery in comparison because it has the audacity to say that the guy should get the girl and not be happy that she left him and say, "I get it, I suck. I'm happy for you, your new boyfriend seems cool." You have no idea how bad this shit is.
>>221238471>>221238522It's a pretty wide genre, but yeah, at it's core it's the worst kind of stat-wank written by the most soulless unimaginative automatons. It's hard to explain, so instead let me post an excerpt from dungeon crawler carl.Imagine having the flow of text be constantly interrupted by popup boxes describing mundane shit, like the MC looked at a plant for 15 seconds, which gave him the plant identification skill at level 1. It hit serialised fiction harder than isekai hit anime.
>>221238715I don't actually mind it if the system exists in universe. What I cannot stand is when only the MC has some cheat system that no one else does
Wow it's kino
>>221238818This is some of the worst writing I've ever seen in my life and it's actually depressing that I find myself rewriting the same sentences, paragraphs, etc, in my own stories which I will never even bother submitting over and over again trying to get the perfect flow, the perfect series of words, and then you look at the stuff people actually publish and make money off of and it's on the same level as a Discord message, just so lazy, ugly, shitty, unfunny, awful....I really hate this world.
>>221238860
>>221238860It's been a while since I read something so painfully unfunny.
>>221238860Are those supposed to be jokes? Like, when a redditor reads, "Achievement Unlocked: Crazy Cat Lady" do they guffaw and snicker out loud?
>>221236319You're not wrong.
>>221238860>>221238877I get the impression that the majority of people listened to the audiobook and the humor came from the delivery of the narrator rather than the text itself.
>>221238850The system eventually degrades into a tool the author uses to conveniently advance the plot. The system in the book isn't rigid, it changes a lot and if the change is significant the author hand-waves it away to be explained later, usually in the next book. A lot of the first few books are, "I'll explain this later" bullshit.
>>221238877>I stared at those last words as they faded away>You're so deadI'm glad he repeated that line that's on the same page, I might have forgotten it otherwise.
>>221238936So it's absolute bullshit. Implementing a system and then disregarding it whenever you are too uncreative to actually operate within it is even worse. He never should have included it in the first place. Hack.
>>221238860almost impressive how westoid 'creatives' can take a shit concept like isekai and make it even worse
>>221238860>Snarky systemThat gives me the ick
>>221238904I would wager that "crazy cat lady" is now seen as a very problematic insult and anyone using it would risk getting cancelled.
>>221236211They're also probably going to remove a lot of the weird shit like the homeless hooker/whore boss, the huge titty alien amalgamation, and a bunch of other "offensive" stuff which interestingly decreases as the series goes on. I have no idea how they're going to advertise this series to the demographic they need without kids thinking this is for them.
>>221238965Isekai sucks ass but rpg spoof like The Hero Yoshihiko can be kino. I also liked Magical Circle Guru Guru when I was a kid.
>>221238860>>221238877Oh god I just realised they're going to voice all this system shit in the tv show, who's going to voice it?
>>221239051>I have no idea how they're going to advertise this series to the demographic they need without kids thinking this is for them.They won't. There is no audience for this garbage. Remember that movie where the Harry Potter actor had guns nailed into his hands and it was really vulgar and there was a bunch of sex and violence and it was also le quirky chungus humor and he was wearing a bathrobe and underwear or something? Exact same genre of thing as this series will be. It had no appeal, and this will have no appeal.
>>221239101Sassy black woman.
>>221239101Stephen Merchant or some video game nerd celebrity voice actress like that Ashley girl from Borderlands. Or if Seth McFarlane is really cheap, himself.
>>221239132>>221239114>>221239101Are you all retarded? Matt would voice ithttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9gwEZns008
>>221236211Can someone explain the type of person that this sort of thing appeals to? It's an entire genre at this point, but I don't think it has a specific name. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6902676/?ref_=nm_flmg_job_1_accord_2_cdt_t_15
>>221236262based. this./thread
>>221239166I can't watch this so I'll just be retarded and take your word for it.
>>221239166No one knows who this faggot is, kill yourself, fan boy.
>>221239279Have sex brown boy
>>221239174People that like the idea of Dungeons and Dragons but have no desire to actually play it
>>221239311>Reddit Leftists have so little culture that they are no co-opting the online right's racism Legitimately embarassing, being brown isn't even a bad thing in your worldview, wtf are you talking about?
>>221239101Idris Elba, easy.
>>221239374We got one folx
>>221239101the voice actor from the audiobooks?
>>221239417How do you justify being racist against brown people in your own worldview where being White is evil?
I didn't actually know voice actors could voice female characters so well
>>221238873So who is the stupid one here? You needlessly overthinking things or the people making loads of money?
>>221239621The fact that western society rewards stupidity doesn't mean the people profiting from that aren't stupid.Not saying that anon isn't stupid as well though.
I'm currently reading this, just started the 6th book. I'm really excited about this show!
Imagine being such a retarded failure you don't submit your own writing work because you seethe over it's quality and complain other writers are more successful. Crab bucket loser thinking. If if if.... If I submitted it'd I would be successful too I'm working so hard I promise.
>>221238873So instead of acknowledging your flaws and lack of writing skills, you prefer to live in your little delusions of grandeur. That or you're just a troll.Maybe you'll understand one day when you learn to appreciate good literature.
>>221239714You're delusional if you think that sloppy writing posted in the examples is good. It's better to try, and fail, to write something good, then to succeed in writing something mediocre.
>>221239711I know it wouldn't be published because my writing is better than that of the editors and they would get angry and instead choose to publish someone worse than them to make themselves feel better. In all likelihood my work will be discovered after I'm dead. So it goes, being a great artist is never easy.
>>221239711What have you submitted anon?
>>221239789>>221239808Bruh
>>221236211I only read one page and it was one of the most cringe things I ever read. As bad as Ready Player One.
>>221236211More like Carl mark dim brain
>>221239761Depends on whether you're writing as a passion project or as a job.A consistent product sells. The most popular web serials aren't necessarily good, they just drop like 10k words a week. Editing can happen when you have a finished product.
>>221239857You seethe at the true artist because you are a mediocrity. Now go read some Stephen King, you hilarious hack.
>>221237497This fucking book is an offense to human life.
>>221239101Jack black
>>221239789Of course that's the reason, anon. And if you did manage to get it published intact, it would be so far above the intellectual capacity of the average person, they just wouldn't understand it, right?
>>221238860This takes me back. So happy to have found this series, I should read it again.>>221239761>>221239789Learn to find value in what other people love. If they enjoy it, there is something in there you failed to see.>>221239444Jeff Hays did an incredible job. I haven't listened to the audiobook myself, but I really like seeing his work process on youtube.
>>221239915No, I actually write in a way which is very easy to read. It's important for the language to flow IMO and be almost hypnotic. There are of course hidden meanings, but they don't distract from the ability for my writing to be read and understood by the masses on a direct and straight forward level, repeat readings and contemplation however reveal new facets.
>>221239944Can you post a page? I'd like to enlighten these fellow troglodytes as to the work of a real artisan above the unwashed masses.
>>221239915kek>>221239944You're not helping you case with this response, you know that right?
>>221239973>>221239985You're so spiteful. It gives the game away.
>>221239857>BruhIs that the name of your novel?
>>221239935>If they enjoy it, there is something in there you failed to see.Yes, mental retardation.
>>221240012Simply elementary my dear Watson. Bravo!
>/tv/ discovers litrpgYes its the male version of shitty romance. Yes its all as bad as excerpts posted here and yes it makes millions. Books for "men" who have had their brains melted by video games and porn.
>>221240124There is no porn in dungeon crawler carl it's wholesome and PG-13.
>>221240049>>221240013>>221240160Lets not entertain him anymore, maybe his work will one day earn its own /lit/ or (god forbid) /tv/ thread.Anyway I'm just really glad that despite this cesspool of a board, there are people sharing nice hobbies instead of wallowing in their own misery. I hope we'll talk positively about the tv series when it eventually comes out, until then maybe I'll explore some of Matt's other books.
>>221240178>toxic positivityIronic really, when you hate toxic masculinity so much.
>>221240160You are actually retarded and cant read.>>221240178>stop making fun of him!Imagine being smug about liking this garbage. If this show ever gets made we will shit on it too kek.
>>221236211>Seth Macfarlane>not a rip off but direct adaptationwtf
>>221240218You keep projecting your own beliefs into other people to try and make a villain to fight. Get some sunshine and stop being a little poopy buttstain.
>>221239621Jew
>>221240259What is there to even rip off? Hardly an original concept.
Life or death dungeon tower crawling is stealing Japanese culture
>>221239174
I dub this thread: The Biggest Collection of Faggots on /ic/And supposedly you're the ones that can read. Congrats, Retards!
>>221236262Pedophile is now being overused and flanderized more than nazi. I don't think anyone will like the consequence of muddying and deflating the meaning of pedophila anon.
>>221240495>>221240544>>221241438What a weird group of homosexual faggots.
>>221237388Calm down magat
>>221238471it's the western version of japanese isekai LNs, specifically the "game world" isekais.being western it has to cater to the kind of numales who are the modern dnd audience
>>221239944Who asked?
>>221236211This is going to be so awful.
>>221241481as opposed to heterosexual faggots
>>221236211How is this not ready player one?
>>221241621it's more gay and lame
>>221241576The person I was replying to who asked the question in this thread that you are participating in without having read any of it.
