should i buy this game?

I love the fact you can do ANYTHING you want and the replayability, the setup... but i dont like the turned based combat :/ thats something i never got the taste of. should i give this game a try? maybe i should play it illegal and then if i like it buy it? i have till 17 of this month for the discount... any advice? any of you were in my same situation and didnt like turned based games till this one?
