I could see this game becoming absolutely fantastic with mod support, but I haven't heard anything about it. Has Big Huge said anything about this?

I'd love me a hardcore mode, that's for sure.

If a couple mods could help with the small but numerous annoyances in this game, it would go from being a really good game, to an absolutley fantastic game.

I've really been frustrated with the abilities system. I have to dump points into skill I don't want just to reach the minimum points to get to the next tier. Hopefully a mod that lowers the limits or adds more points per level comes out soon.

probably not.. though texture replacers seem to be the easiest to do without actual mod tools.

The whole game is extremely locked down. You can't even change FOV or individually mess with settings in an ini file.
