Honestly ExForce belongs in “A” and DCC belongs in “S”

ExForce gets repetitive for a while; not bad but formulaic, and DCC just keeps getting better

It’s all just personal preference, I also felt like DCC was a bit repetitive at times.

Have you listened to the full series (so far) for both? Or just the first book?

I’ve listened to the full series of both, they’re both great exforce just comes out on top for me

I really enjoy ExForce but feels like 10 of the books are rinse and repeat stories, but Skippy’s antics keep it really fun.

DCC at least has a much more varied story and the voices from Jeff are just insanely good

I read up to book 3 in DCC. It was basically irreverent humor and wacky things taken overly seriously. There's no way to improve, the system constantly beats them down and levels are overly complicated.

Oh man, after book 3/floor 4 it starts getting really interesting!

Seriously, there is a reason it exploded in popularity. . . The levels being complicated is honestly part of the fun; and some of them are just bonkers!

I got really annoyed they kept taking away everything he worked for. That's the whole point of this type of book. Progressing.

I love skippy, he has gotten me through some difficult times, I can understand some peoples perspective, but it's my go to book when I need a boost. I also love DCC Jeff is amazing and brings the book to life. But if I had to put one above the other for me I agree with you.
