"When any government, or any church for that matter, undertakes to say to its subjects, This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know, the end result is tyranny and oppression no matter how holy the motives." ~ Robert A. Heinlein.

I have intentionally avoided watching it because I'm not into gore or suffering. But since no one is complaining about that, like say beheading videos, especially of children, then is it fair to say it's not to graphically cringe-worthy?

I've not watched it either, but beheading videos often have fewer victims and are more set up in a way to be presentable (for lack of a better word).

Given how many people describe the shooting as similar to a video game, I can't help but think back to the Modern Warfare 2 mission, called "No Russian", in which you're made to walk through the airport with others and gun down innocent civilians.
