It's true what 5th horseman said.
With all the tools available so far (superluminal, spellchecker, weapon creator etc...), modding FTL is incredibly easy to get into.
Combining that with the fact that you can get a quick and polite awnser to any questions you may have, there isn't anything stopping you.
Beside, you said it yourself, it's easy.
Played DS 1 and 2 myself, great games.
Stomp, stomp, stomp... so many boxes to smash.
