It's not extremism -- it's representing a value -- of being able to access, learn, and change the code that we run and use to improve our lives.
One perspective would say "RMS/Free-software advocates are saying only free games should be played" -- but another is:
"If we want to have access to the code for the games we play (as a value), what economic, legal and technical infrastructure (rather than depending on current copyright, DRM, etc) do we need?" If that's something we want, how do we advocate for it?
