We've been tent camping for years and I have gone backcountry backpacking many, many times. (Backpacking is what real boondocking is all about. -LOL)
In fact, but forgive me, when I say -*tongue in cheek*- I dont believe RV'ing is really 'real camping' at all. :) ...it's rv-ing
I doubt "movin' on up" to an RV's gonna discourage me!
I am just at the stage in my life that I'm done with all the work and prep involved in tenting.
I agree to an extent. When you move in increments (tent, tent trailer, small TT, etc.), then it's really not a big deal.
However, going from a tent straight to a large TT, you may find the change too big and you don't enjoy it anymore. You will find that you are much more closed off from the outdoors and you lose that "camping" feel.
You might try renting for a weekend and see if you like a large trailer.
