I don't mean to confuse with the concept of a "game you don't get to play". I just mean that, no matter whether you die now or later, oblivion presumably stretches on to eternity. You simply cease to exist, and if that seems like a good thing to you, then you're in luck, because it's going to happen sooner or later.
So, however crappy those 30 years might seem relative to your best years, they're the last 30 years of sentience you get. I'd say enjoy them. Or even if you can't, at least experience them.
