There really is an elitism among "RPI" players, at least as expressed on TMS' forums.
I don't disagree with you at all in asfar as this genre appeals to some players and not others. It's not the kind of game I personally prefer to play, but I can respect what's been created on the better works of the genre for the quality games they are.
Everyone thinks the game they choose to play is the best. It's just the way of things. The difference, I think, is that RPI players tend to project this opinion that the fact that they choose to play an RPI makes them more mature or adult than players who choose a differing style of game. Whereas, for example, a H&S mudder will tend to think he has the better or more fun game, but he won't call you a child, immature, or socially deficient for preferring something else.
