A means to start a new game with no starting technology

[Lexyvil]

Good evening.

The purpose of a technology tree in a game is to research them, so I would like to request having an option to start a new game with the most basic technologies still yet to be researched, as there seems to be no option in version 1.3 to start with none.

Currently there are technologies in the tech-tree that are always researched no matter what game mode you choose, which makes me wonder why they are in the tech-tree in first place if they are not to be played with in the options. Even tribal mode starts with pre-researched technologies, which surprised me. I initially expected that mode to start with nothing, mainly to roleplay as cavemen who started becoming intelligent. It would really add to the challenge.

Thanks.
