Line 306:
* In the second ''[[The Black Mirror|Black Mirror]]'' game, there is talk early in the game of a woman named Kerry who committed suicide in the small Maine town. You never hear of her again once you leave the town.
* In ''[[Gears of War]] 2'', Delta Squad visits New Hope, an abandoned COG research facility filled with horrible humanoid mutants called "Sires." They are never explained in the game canon, the only evidence about them came from an Epic developer's post on the official forums where he claimed their story had been cut from ''3''. Essentially, they were performing horrible research on humans and Myrrah was one of the subjects. With her Human/Locust hybrid DNA, she was able escape and become leader of the Locust horde.
* In ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', there are a series of cutscenes that talk about Perry (Peach's talking umbrella), and how he {{spoiler|was once human.}} However, this never expanded upon and we never learn who was responsible.
* Freya in ''[[Final Fantasy IX]]'' appears this way as she and her relationship with Fratley was never explored. We'll never know what's his deal.
* In ''[[Mass Effect 2]]'', much is made of a star that is aging too quickly, and one of the few mandatory missions involves recovering data on it. This data is considered important enough that the Quarians are willing to sacrifice whole teams of elite commandos in order to obtain it. Come the third game, this is never mentioned again. {{spoiler|This was originally going to be the motive behind the Reaper cycle. Use of the Mass Relays causes dark energy (which is what was prematurely aging the star) to spiral dangerously out of control, threatening the whole galaxy. The Reapers cull advanced civilizations to stop this from happening. However, the departure of several key dev members caused Bioware to change it to the, uh, controversial [http://www.ign.com/boards/threads/yo-dawg-i-heard-you-liked-the-mass-effect-3-ending-spoilers.250101291/ motivation] that we actually got.}}
* Ike and Elincia had a far amount of [[Ship Tease]] in ''[[Fire Emblem Tellius|Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance]]'', which pretty much dissappeared without a trace in the sequal, Radiant Dawn.
* In ''[[The Devil on G-String]]'', if you take Tsubaki or Mizuha's paths, the entire story around international mafia overlord Maou is straight up abandoned. Unlike many examples of this trope, the abortion, at the very least in the Tsubaki route, is fully acknowledged by Haru saying to leave the Maou issue to her during the final scene in the school, followed by a few lines in the final scene reminiscing about how she was only there for 3 months and left.
** It persists for a little bit if you take Kanon's route, given the nature of the story.
