The problem with RuneQuest, of course, is that it's RuneQuest.
You're just as incompetent as you are in CoC, except everyone has
big pointy things, and they like to stick them into each other. 

This makes things funny when you realize you only have a 50%
chance to grab a glass of water without spilling it all over
yourself.  15% if you're a duck.  No hands.

Then again, people who want to eat you first have to scrutinize
you to ensure you are a duck (which they will fail), scrutinize
you to make sure you're plump enough to be eaten (which they will
fail) and make their "kill duck and eat it" roll -- which, of
course, they will fail.
