To answer your questions: this is posted in !games@lemmy.world because this specific petition relates to the interests of this specific Lemmy community, this does not mean it's "so important", or that it's a priority, it's just one of the many topics the users that frequent this community are interested about.
On the topic of other petitions, there are actually a lot of different petitions by European Citizen, that are available on the website dedicated to it: https://citizens-initiative.europa.eu/. For example, there are two other petitions that are at the same stage of the Stop Killing Games petition (they're in the process of verification). One calls for a ban on conversion therapies, which are discriminatory and harmful towards LGBTQ+ citizen, the other calls to "Stop Extremism" within the European Union, but is rather vague about what it's about.
The "My Voice, My Choice: For Safe And Accessible Abortion" was verified as "Valid Initiative" on September of this year, and on the 1st of October, its representatives met with Hadja Lahbib, European Commissioner for Equality, and European Commissioner for Preparedness and Crisis Management to discuss it, they will later have the opportunity to present it publicly to Parliament Members, which may hold a dedicated debate session. So far there's been 11 "Answered Initiatives" of varying subjects (this means the parliament debated on it, and reached a conclusion, and made a statement, you can learn more about the process here: https://citizens-initiative.europa.eu/how-it-works_en).
It's a great system that's underused in my opinion (lots of reasons for it but that's another subject matter). If you're a European Citizen and feel like there are topics you would like to bring to the European Parliament, I highly encourage you to create one and fight for what you believe is important!
