After you die, the amount of time between the Death Game Hint pops up and client closes is so short that it's impossible to read it [didn't manage to even finish reading the first two sentences].

ah, seen it on oin's vid before and i agree it was very short.
but is this a bug?

"Bugs & Technicalities"

On your character, there's a "Help" or "Tutorial" button one that should have all the pop-ups available that have been shown to your account. When you make a new character, there should be a button there for that and you can look at it again.

My opinion is that the client probably shouldn't shut down like that on death and that the player should be allowed to shut down manually (or go back to log-in or character select screen).

Another option: if a character is killed, the next time a character is created, the tutorial pops up there instead.
