Daikatana is part of it. It doesn't help that he has a poor reputation. Also, Romero has had no success without Carmack. That leads people to believe that maybe he was never that talented in the first place.

But interestingly, Carmack (id that is) never made quite the games that they used to when Romero was around. The new Rage trailer does not get my hopes up.

This clearly shows that tech beats design, since Carmak is still respected, while Romero apparently is not. 

What's not to respect about Carmak the guy is a genius, he literally is a rocket scientist. Romero has proved he had less of the magic sauce than the rest of id... And he is still arrogant after all this time.
