1.04 is on Piratebay and Steam, is it worth installing Windows for?

I haven't played the game since close to launch. What kind of mods are out there for it? Steam Workshop or is there a separate site for mods?

Does the mod really add anything besides more stuff to build?

I liked Banished a lot, but it felt a little shallow in terms of things that could happen. Once you had your city established it sort of just ran on its own and you'd have to add things to keep ahead of the growing population. There weren't any really advanced industries that eventually had to be implemented, or any that would even do anything once they were.

Rather than just more stuff the game sort of felt like it needed more sort-of goals or at least variety in events. To make a comparison to Dwarf Fortress, DF has stuff like Strange Moods, Noble Demands, becoming the mountainhome (capital), or needing recreational things and nice buildings to keep positive moods up.

Well, this game was kind of a letdown.

I played like three sessions and during the third one I build a stable empire after two hours or so. Now all I can do is expand horizontally, but not vertically, meaning I can build more of the stuff I already have. That's like 3 hours of gameplay in total.
