Aren't you the one who generalized your situation and assumed most gamers are either young or not that common, so it would take 100 years until it becomes a daily occurrence for gamers to die? It's already a daily occurrence today.
I didn't judge anyone.
Sorry I threw out a hyperbolic number to a future time for a conversational thought experiment, despite it being rationally accurate. Someone else shared some data that yes, most deaths are not gamers. 3/4 of deaths are old age over the age of 65, and 6% of people over the age of 65 play video games. But that doesn't matter. I said you were being judgmental about me as a person for some reason and that wasn't called for.
