Yes, it really is. I’m reading through the Prologue and it’s actually pretty amazing.
You can only take things so far with bodies before people start asking how the Gluon Beam will effect the environment. I say keep it fairly simple. 
Insta-evaporation sounds pretty sweet though. Or dust, War of the Worlds style.
WTF are you guys smoking? Awfully written prose.
I vote against anything that appeared in a fanfic ever. :meh:
I’m having a hard time visualizing what he’s writing. Not only is it because it’s based on a game that I’ve played oodles of times, it’s also overdescriptive and smarmy.
It’s got good vocabulary, but seems very clunky. It’s like the author has taken individual descriptive segments and glued them together, rather than writing flowing sentences.
I read the first couple of lines. The author is trying to hard and as a result its almost a strain to read. Some things are best left to the imagination of the reader, and this amount of over-description doesn’t allow the reader to think of anything.
I think the Gluon Gun should turn people into Unicorns who slowly turn into dust over six minutes, also, you can ride these unicorns into battle swinging your crowbar around. :>
Was that really worth bumping a long dead thread?
Hang on, the calls are coming in… and it looks like the overwhelming answer is no, Bob!
Yes. 
Will the gluon gun disintegrate or interact with props and such?
In before lock. Oh wait…
