Quite frankly you are smoking rocks if this game doesn't become one of the most pleasantly infectious gaming memories of your life.  I should really hate this game for the hundreds of hours it has managed to detract me from doing things society would label as "important".  I love this game more than my mom and I've told that to her face.  Even if you don't end up liking this game I believe everybody owes it to themselves to try it out.
