Comparing suicide to quitting a game seems kind of offensively trivializing to me; similar to comparing killing people in a video game to having to kill people in war. I guess it's just a metaphor, but still.

(Also, sad to see Jeff Atwood was also contemplating suicide at one point. If you factor in "quality of life years", suicide is an even bigger problem than a lot of other health issues, since it disproportionately affects the young, and affects other people.)
