I can't speak for others, but I felt like it was trying too hard. That, and "nerd" culture has been mainstream since at least the release of the Lord of the Rings movies. To act like they're all some kind of outcasts because of their interests in previously outre things like Dungeons and Dragons or particle physics was just disingenuous.
