I still don't get the whole "the MC is an ugly loser" genre of smut that people seem to like *because they see themselves as loser*(?)

Maybe it's "I'm a loser, but I know I'm not as bad as THAT sad sack of flesh, so if even HE gets to score, surely I will be able to as well"?

If you're really insecure, maybe self-identifying with/as the hero/hunk/player becomes impossible. And then the next best thing is feeling superior to something, anything.
I keep getting writer's block on one project, and then halt all my other projects because I feel guilty for not updating the oneI'm stuck on

I think one of the better aspects of CHYOA for me is that I can change projects when inspiration hits. (Granted that I've been off my writing groove for a long time now.)

Oh, I know the feeling. Recently I realised that I might have just taken too many projects and decided to slow all of it down, just to keep writing all of them.

Man. Sounds like the writing drive drying up is not only mine issue. I started having headaches as winter ended and now I am finally trying to get myself to write again.
Another day, another maddeningly specific RP concept that will plague me and demand attention!

Yet another one!

The biggest issue with RP concepts is that you need to do it with other people. This takes time. This means you may have to compromise on your idea because the other players have different ideas/limits. And most importantly: Sometimes the RNG is not in your favour.

Update: My biggest issue with RP concepts is actually scheduling a game with players. (I am trying to run an RPG after giving up on the previous one because 3/5 players never had time for it. Now I have a new campaign where it looks like we are playing once a month because none of the people who eagerly wanted to play the campaign, have time for it.)

Mafia 3 kind of has the most badass story of any game ever. Would almost be cool to see a CHYOA story with a similar vibe.
