* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
** [[http://youtu.be/edf2kX9y8UM The announcement trailer]] features a lot of elements that were either changed or removed from the story over the course of development, including:
*** Luke in his prequel trilogy outfit because the team was still deciding if they should include Emmy. Ultimately, they decided not to and shifted the game's timeline forward a bit.
*** Phoenix and Layton openly disliking each other from the start, with the Professor acting as a prosecutor for Espella early in the story.
*** A group of hooded townspeople chasing Espella through the night, TorchesAndPitchforks in hand.
*** Different designs for most other characters, including a much more youthful Storyteller.
*** The whole "how could you have known what's in a book you never read" element. The concept of the book containing the entire past, present, and future history of Labyrinthia exists, but isn't used in that way.
