I suppose I'm just used to people who _want_ to make the effort. As for an introduction to Glorantha, how difficult is it to write (or tell a story) giving the viewpoint of only a single culture.
The last time I needed to introduce new people, I ran a gaumata's vision with sundomers. A simple culture to explain, and one that is easy to grasp. The newbies especially praised the "hot sand in the sandals" feel, and the depth of the setting.
I don't think they would have liked a "do whatever takes your fancy" attitude much.
But I guess, "when in Rome..."
