10 Video Game Levels Removed For Being Too Hard

Time for a quite literally cut level now in Fallout: New Vegas. Players will be familiar with the Gomorrah Hotel and Casino, the hotbed of debauchery which can be found on the New Vegas Strip, but did you know that it originally had an extra accessible floor?

During development, Bethesda coded the labyrinthine hotel to have a third level, though ultimately decided that it made an already maze-like location too complicated to navigate and, above all else, just not fun for players.

New Vegas director Josh Sawyer himself said that the shipped version of Gomorrah was already large and challenging enough to get through, and that this planned third floor "actually detracted from the experience," so the decision was made to cut it entirely.

Given that Gomorrah is already one of the most divisive locales in the entire game - if not the Fallout franchise as a whole - largely due to its confusing level design, it was probably for the best that Obsidian didn't add any more layers of complexity.
