Most people are sold by their first view of a product and IMHO the cover artwork just doesn't say fun fantasy RPG. Glorantha (the book) is an improvement but still could be better.
This is not a dig at the artists and I do like the pictures a lot, I just don't think that they sell the product. For £25 I want to buy something that looks exciting and this doesn't. Also from a buying perspective heavier says value for money, even if the actual content is the same.
I look forward to seeing what Multisim have done with their copy.
BTW, my copy of the rules is already shedding pages and I don't use it that heavily.
