It will be a far better experience in the future. If half the datamined content is implemented, anyway. A fair gambit if you don't have a lot of time for gaming.

What makes you think anything like half the datamined content will be implemented? People seem to have strange ideas about what gets dredged up with datamining. While it can be stuff developers wanted to include that was cut for time or performance reasons, it can also be parts of long abandoned story lines, ideas they played with that were never fully developed or integrated into the rest of the game, things they just didn�t think worked, etc.

I�d guess there�s elements of all these things in what people have found, but there�s a lot of bold claims about it all being stuff that was �supposed� in the released game. I�d treat such claim with a fair amount of scepticism or you might be setting yourself up for future disappointment.
That's just the thing: I *do* think an epilogue and the tied in companion endings is *reasonable*. It's what the game needs to be bumped up from an 8/10.

You lose nothing from playing it later. I wasn't very optimistic at first, but much of the dropped content is surprisingly developed and reeks of last minute cuts. See it this way: if nothing else, people won't get any of the game breaking bugs. Nor the majorly annoying ones.
