You need to create a compelling world, craft unique social and physical challenges for your characters, spin entertaining plots and manage the expectations of a half-dozen or so individuals, all of which adds up to several hours a week of hard work. It can also be a lonely task; players always have someone to talk to, but game masters often exist in their own force-fielded bubble, unable to talk out issues like campaign management, plot creation or dealing with troublesome players.
