Some is also deleted because it steps on the story. We realized as we went that we didn't want Lilly to reveal that she knows your past until the RV scene in episode 3, so that was removed from 2. Things like that.
Things also get added late if they help the story. For instance, the scene on the road to the dairy where you first meet the bandits wasn't in the game until a couple weeks before it came out.
I'm sad Clem's line about the cow got cut.
We deliberately left Crawford out of the preview.

I'm just curious about the trailer for Episode 2. It made it seem like you had a lot more planned for the bandits at first. Obviously, you didn't want to hint anything malicious about the St. Johns, so I understand that totally, but there's a scene where Lee is frantically running away, and Kenny talking about there was going to be a war. Were there more plans with the bandits originally, or was that just to throw people off about the true villains of the episode?
