And you will! (Well, "changed my life" is perhaps a bit of an exaggeration, now that I think about it; more "made me think and I have changed the way I approach life slightly because of it.")

And yeah, I kind of thought that was what the player was supposed to take away from that bit (the "twist" through the ending); that their creators, who are constantly built up as gods in their world, end up these regular people, and that they needed to stop looking to the heavens for help and instead realize that they're on their own and need to make their own path.

(Admittedly this idea mostly comes out of the so-stupid-it's-awesome Cartesian cogito ergo sum ending. XD)

And I think a better description of the .hack games has never been written. XD;
