If there was an actual way of preventing cheaters from getting it AND only allowing achievements on the hardcore difficulty (no save scumming) I'd think it could be justified to prevent achievements on a modded game, but.
The solution provided by the previous posts (some files can be changed while still getting achievements) would already be a lot better than the current situation, but still far from ideal. On a side note, achievements are absolutely worthless, all they provide is bragging rights, there is little to no reason to put any effort into preventing even cheaters from getting them, so that's also something to consider about this (I only use them to mark progression and know what I'm still missing in the game). I expect Larian will learn this too, eventualy. Other companies slowly learned that this sort of blocking serves absolutely no purpose (X-Com, The Elder Scrolls series and Binding of Isaac, are a few games that come to mind), it mannages to prevent players that are actually playing the game, but modded, from getting achievements, but does nothing to prevent players who want to get achievements in an easy way (cheating) from getting them.
If someone really wants to get the achievements easily they already can, there are several ways available, cheat engine being the easiest of them. Since the kickstarter it has been claimed that this game would be mod friendly, that alone should be enough reason to allow achievements on a modded game. Frankly it shouldn't even be limited to "certain mods".
