Is this worth the price of admission? I've been itching to play DayZ since it came out as a mod.

It's not. You need to drink a lot in order to get to 100%, same with food. You spawn in at 20-30% in health/food, and most people thinks that all you have to do is drink/eat once and you're fine, fact is you're only going to be 20-30% full/hydrated if you do this and the messages will keep popping up.
So eat and drink until it says you're full, rest by sitting down (F3) every now and then for a minute or two, and after a while your character will be less like a bitch and more like Bear Grylls. Also, if you're bleeding, take your shirt off, put it on the ground and tear it apart, and you'll receive a few rags to bandage yourself with.
tl;dr What would Bear Grylls do?

Apparently you need to keep drinking until it says you're thirst is quenched or something. You spawn very thirsty and hungry and to hit the 100% modifier takes several goes.

Thanks for the guidance guys. I'll definitely be playing more of Dayz. Is it possible to play daytime even if it's night in RL?

if this works similar to the dayZ on arma 2 you just need to join a server with another server time

i dont have the standalone but it sounds like the same as mod dayZ during night you normally dont see much except if you have full moon. thats kindof the realistic part of it.
try to find a server with a different timezone until you find some nightgoogles or something

a game that tell you to take care of yourself by drinking water not kola, and eating and resting?
people might learn something useful for life from this zombie game.
