Half life (1998) also had an OEM version called "Day one" containing the first half of the game along with some slightly last minute changes missing from it, compared to the released version (different handgun ammo count etc). Wondering why oem versions were dumbed down pre-releases

Probably due to deadlines for inclusion, while for normal release they had more time.

First quarter likely as it had first 4 chapters only.
