Two: Expecting modders to be responsible for 'fixing' the game is a terrible practice.
How can a company make this big change now? With such a high like rating ta boot. They can and will be making general adjustments though.
What they could do and I think it would be smart, is come out with a screen with all kind of mod options you can turn on/off, baked into the game, like Xcom mods that were very popular additions. A page of I want this or that added. That way those playing and happy, continue on. Those not so happy, they can check what they want and then try a do over. And the best of all worlds, a person that is happy to try various mods in subsequent plays.
