RE: Why remove the trailer scenes?

Welcome!

They did not include the exact scenes, most likely because they do not want you to know any gameplay events before actually playing the game. It would not come off as a surprise to you if you knew it was coming, if you know what I mean. Also, The Dark Descent's original trailer included an entire area which was never ever seen in the game, not even coming close to resembling anywhere in the finished product. This might be due to what has been mentioned about having to do big changes to the game, but I personally believe it was to more ideally show features of the game off more efficiently while not revealing any actual events of the game. I would probably feel de-immersed if I arrived somewhere and thought: "Oh, I know this part, and I know what is going to happen!"

However, I also missed some more tense events as displayed in the trailers for A Machine For Pigs. Perhaps it was intended to introduce more things like that, but changed later? From what I know, the game was supposed to be a lot shorter, more of an expansion pack perhaps, in which it might make more sense to introduce horror the same way that The Dark Descent did. It ended up as an entirely new and fresh game, instead, and while I did not feel the same constant tension as I did with The Dark Descent (and the A Machine For Pigs trailers, for that matter), I still felt on the edge at many parts, while still feeling different kinds of emotions and horror that I did not feel in its predecessor, ie. fearing for the life of others and carrying responsibility for something most dreadful. ^^
