You sound just like a person that grew up enjoying games should. Just continue enjoying your games and don't give two shit about the 'community'. I don't want to get too sociological here, but let's just say this whole new generation of gamers, internet identities, opinionated bringers of truth is suffering from a major case of compensating for the lack of meaning, a direction. The world is a very confusing place these days, as it should be, a major technological breakthrough happened, it takes a while for the human mind to catch up. Entitlement and excess of material wealth are a real thing my friend. Be grateful for every game you enjoy because you're having fun with it or are getting something meaningful out of (This war of mine & Papers please come to mind). Never apologize for having fun @30fps. Never measure fun in frames per second or number of pixels. It suck when your multiplayer community gets tainted by narcissistic idiots, but c'est la vie. Move on, find fun again, be sure those people won't and they will envy you for it.
It's hard to blame the mainstream gamer in all this much too. There's a lot of subtle mind control at work, be it from publishers, graphic card, CPU and computer manufacturers in general, 'honest' IT media ect ect... But that too will pass, for every action there's an equal and opposite reaction.
