A collection of unused and scraped ideas and scenes from Tales from the Borderlands. There is a ton of content left in the game files so please enjoy!
(Note: This is more like 95% of all cut content. Script files alone could take up hours if truly dived into detail.)

I very recently after uploading this video found a little bit more info about episode 5 I did not include. It only remains as dev notes so nothing visible to be seen.

1. August would help Fiona and Sasha in the hallways before meeting back up with Finch and Kroger. August becomes a bit more noble and wants to help Fiona and Sasha over Finch and Kroger here. Fiona will also later either kill Finch or Kroger during that scene. Additionally, there was a cut area where Fiona was to search for the caravan and then fix the engine with Loaderbot.
2. If Felix wasn't cut from Episode 4, he would be at the crash with Fiona. If Fiona blamed him in episode 3, Vallory kills him.
3.Originally Rhys was to simply unplug Jack from Helios to kill him, or could plug him back in willingly to the echo eye by itself. Another idea was that if you had Dumpy, Jack would be uploaded into Dumpy and could project himself out for everyone to see and hear him.
4. Vaughn would either be a Old Haven Psycho Leader or a Hyperion Survivors Leader based on if he escaped with Cassius or not. When he returns Rhys could hug him by mashing "q" and the hug wouldn't stop until players did.
5. Originally Zer0 was to only help players if they did poorly during action sequences or would be available if no one else was.
