Skyrim Cut Content

After hundreds of hours of work, a modder is restoring content that was cut from Skyrim, including locations, NPCs, items and dialogue


After hundreds of hours of work, modder ‘Unorthodogg’ is restoring content that was cut from Skyrim Special Edition. This is a thirteen-part mod series, in which the modder attempts to add everything he could find that was removed or cut, and put it back in the game. So, let’s take a look at it.

Right now, the modder has restored the content in eight regions. These are:

Whiterun
Haafingar / Solitude
Hjaalmarch / Morthal
The Pale / Dawnstar
The Reach / Markarth
The Rift / Riften
Winterhold
Falkreath | Granite Hill

Now I won’t be listing below the content that was restored in the aforementioned eight regions. Otherwise, you’d be scrolling down for hours. Since I’ve listed the links, though, you can find more details on their pages.

For the best experience, the modder suggests using them on a New Game. The mods should work on pre-existing saves and they should be okay to install mid-game. However, there are certain parts in Whiterun like Anoriath going outside and the stables scene that can depend on player progress.

Do note that at the moment, Unorthodogg has not restored any quests. From what I know, he also does not plan to any of them in future versions. Nevertheless, this new free content is something that some Skyrim fans may appreciate.

As I said, this is a 13-part mod series. In the next few days, we expect the modder to release the other five parts.

Speaking of Skyrim, here are some other big fan expansions for it. Wyrmstooth is one of them, adding new quests and dungeons to the game. This other mod brings elements from The Witcher games into SkyrimDragon Hall Tavern is a huge 2GB mod that adds quests, new places, an arena, and more. Then there’s  Land of VominhemApotheosis and Legacy of the Dragonborn. Don’t forget to also check out this Castlevania-inspired modShumer and the Priest Kings is another DLC-sized expansion mod with over 200 locations, 180+ quests and 8,500 lines of voiced dialogue. Oh, and here is another one that adds the cool Nemesis system from Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor to it. Lastly, we have this mod that adds six new islands to explore.

And that’s not all. Skyrim has other mods that do lots of cool stuff. This Call of Duty Mod adds to the game 12 new fully functional weapons from it. Then we have this mod that adds to the base game over 7000 voiced lines via AI. There is also this mod that brings the voices of Geralt and Ciri from The Witcher 3 to it. Another cool mod is this one that adds destructible objects to the game. You can also download this mod that makes NPCs smarter, enabling dynamic AI and allowing them to seek cover.  Oh, and let’s also not forget this mod that adds unlimited dynamic light sources, as well as this mod that introduces a dynamic sanity system. Not only that but this mod adds a dynamic decapitation system. Finally, these mods add Subsurface Scattering, Dynamic Cubemaps, Water Caustics and Parallax Mapping to the game.
