Did the Brecilian Forest section of the game have content that was cut in development?

I've been replaying Origins again for the umpteenth time, and just finished up the Brecilian Forest last night. Something about that section of the game has always felt lackluster to me, and I realized that it feels like the Forest/Dalish just have less content overall compared to the other races/areas in the game.

The entire Dalish section of the game is like 5 pretty small areas, with only a handful of quests. The only other section of the game that's that small is the Circle Tower, but it's fleshed out with a bunch of Puzzles and the Fade section, and the game as a whole devotes more time and information to Mages in other sections.
