Isn't being GM the best part? not that I know much about literal rpg-ing that's not in video games
In rpg on computer you are always the player. The world, its rules and events are all created by game creators. So you get to enjoy, well, role playing of character you created in already prepared world.
In real world rpg, the world and its rules are based on the rpg system you are playing and the even if some basic about world are usually given so you get the feel, it is the game master job to create a scenario for players. Also unlike the game rpg, the options are limitless, players can do everything they want as long as it follows the laws of the word they are playing in, so there will be times when GM has to improvise on the spot. Hell, players can ignore the story GM created and go totally different way making his entire planing pointless. Being GM can be really rewarding but it is also a lot of work. Even if you are creating all characters your players are interact with, it is not the same as just becoming one and immersing yourself with it. I get the appeal of being GM, but I honestly prefer to role play 1 character.
