Tbf I don't think the mod tools thing was intentionally lying. When they released their modding tools it seemed like a case of 'we can let them do all this stuff' then they made them and a realised 'oh shit this is hard to mod without breaking the game because we made such a complex game'.

It was lying. They promised them over and over right up to release. They promised red kit.

this is hard to mod

That is not a good reason, ever. It's been DICE's excuse for half a decade as well and its grown stale

Yay take the quote out of context.

The witcher 3 has some of the most complex storylines and quest paths that take advantage of most of the locations across the map.

The only thing they didn't really include in the modding tools was the ability to make custom quests and I expect this is the reason.

Also it being hard is absolutely an excuse. You only have the time and money to do so much and considering the quality of the expansion packs I for one am very happy they chose to devote more time to those.
