If you wanted to be a surgeon, and you couldn't handle the inevitable blood (real blood mind you, not pixels on a monitor/TV) how on Earth should hospitals have adapted to your special needs as a worker?
As sibling commenters have pointed out, your worldview seems to be very naive. It's not that long ago on a historic scale that people routinely killed each other in wars/conquests every single day.
And they used very twisted, elaborate techniques to maximize suffering and the effect on other people in public executions.
If you have a problem with violence, Mortal Kombat should be near the bottom of the list because it's just pixels, without anyone getting killed or disabled in real life.
Just look at how popular UFC, MMA, WWE, boxing and other contact sports are. Billions of people watch them. Floyd Mayweather was paid hundreds of Millions of dollars for beating his opponents, imagine just how many people paid to watch that? And they really enjoyed it. This is infinitely more worrisome to me than people not handling gamedev well.
People have been maimed and killed in the (boxing) ring. Ali was diagnosed with Parkinson's syndrome as the result of all the head trauma he went through.
