It turns out that because they’re so good, some of the Bethesda developers working on Skyrim did make a conscious decision to unhook and hide content that had to be removed from the game, but not remove it from the game. Completely removed from the game files, hopefully modders will eventually discover it.
As with any big, ambitious game, there’s a lot that didn’t quite make it into the actual version of Skyrim, but was later resurrected by modders, who didn’t feel the same pressure to finish and release the full game once development reached a certain point. The developers of Skyrim will be in a state where it will be as playable as possible. The Arena at Windhelm is one example that immediately comes to mind, but I’m sure there are others I know nothing about.

Well, interestingly enough, the developers secretly left some files in the game that let modders know about something like this.this comes from Former Bethesda developer Joel BurgessIn an interview at the C3 modding showcase, he also worked on Skyrim, as well as multiple Fallout games and Oblivion.
After discussing some aspects of the game Civil War that were edited out, Burgess said: “I remember being so excited a few years later, I was like the ‘sickos’ meme out the window, watching modders find their way to the cutting room floor on something.” “When we do have to pare down something,” he continued, “maybe we don’t delete it, maybe we just undo it, or we just comment out those lines of script, because often we want to leave the template Group creators can find and use breadcrumbs of content that we can’t get into.”
So there you have it. If you’re wondering what content was removed from Civil War, we’ve known about it for a while and it should now be more of a focus on the game, says Burgess and fellow developer Daryl Brigner Draw a very interesting picture of it. “It’s completely dynamic,” the former said. “The war will ebb and flow, and every city can be captured by any faction.”
Battles around key locations like Fort Sangard should also apparently be more common, with generals leading both sides planning to have maps with dynamically moving battle markers in their tents.
To be honest, just hearing about how in-depth this stuff is and realizing that Skyrim launched in 2011, which means these discussions were happening before then, I’m not surprised because it ended up being so hard Pull seamlessly through publishing. . But hey, at least those who tried it helped set up some of the additional content in the game thereafter.
