The following are mentioned in Dolgan, Dragon, Snake, Beca and Jade's dialogue files.
Cathedral
Most cathedral NPCs give you only a small part of their dialogue. A good example is Viola, who has many lines that cannot be accessed. So it's hard to tell if actually any NPCs were completely removed.
- Dumar
- Zack Barstow
- Surf
- Barracus
Cut psykers:
- Dominic - "A strange energy flares from his eyes."
- Wiggup - "Small sparks of energy flow over his body," likely Wiggum.
Super mutants
It is unknown if the super mutants were slated for the Mariposa Military Base or the Master's Lair.
The Thinker Nightkins

Cut location content
Boneyard
- A gang war in the Boneyard, with the Blades as a regular gang instead of a bunch of wimps and Tangler as a big bad boss of the Rippers (you can hear about them in some tell-me-abouts). Related quests to join the Blades, stop the gangs from attacking Adytum, and rescue Zimmerman's son (Jason, not Josh) from the Rippers.
Glow
“Behind one of the broken goo-filled suspension tanks was a body of a big-headed alien. Near that was a desk with a note on it. The note had about every third letter taken out, but if you puzzled out what it said, you could figure out that it was an evacuation notice, signed by Dana Scully.”— Fallout Bible 9
The body has this description "This body might be some kind of genetic experiment."
Other:
- GLOWCAGE.MSG - "It appears as though this cage contained lab animals for testing. Somehow, the bars have been torn off."
- GLWBOX.MSG - "This looks to be the footlocker of some guards."
- GLOWDESK.MSG - a locked desk of papers
