And it's not just Bethsoft that does stuff like that; a group of modders found a massive amount of game content in one of the Star Wars RPGs, too: nearly a whole complete questline, just dropped.

Don't even get me started on the material cut from STALKER. That'd be a second game all by itself.

I'd wager there's likewise things like that in FO3, FONV and FO4.

I for one wish the Capitol Wasteland was much larger and bleaker. I liked the "ghost radio stations" for example. Oh well.
Fo2 and fonv were rife with incompleteness and dropped/cut content. Still some of my favorite games.
