toxicTom: Sometimes it's "kill your darlings". But sometimes it's a matter of time and making the release date. In Planescape: Torment there was an area (late in the game) that was clearly not finished. Texts were missing (cursor indicates description but nothing happens) and you could get stuck going into one of the areas since they forgot the exit. I'm glad there are restoration patches for that.
Some Skyrim mods add back NPC banter (i.e. guard dialog) that was (probably) accidentally forgotten. I mean there even are voice recordings for that and the lines totally make sense within the game.
Fever_Discordia: Also, I've not experienced it first hand, but KOTOR 2 was famously released in a no-where near finished state - apparently the huge content restoration patches bring it UP to a half-finished level, or something...
