In the end it doesn't justify what Kayaba did and he does deserve to be imprisoned for life or executed for the severity of his crime, but c'mon, Kayaba has a large part towards Kazuto and Asuna's current happiness. It's undeniable.
People fall in love without beaing forced to play a game where they can die anytime. So, no, this death game was never necessary for that to happen.

I'm talking not about SAO a simple game but about the death aspect in the game.
