Considered[]
The World We Knew (Over and Over)[]
The song, The World We Knew (Over and Over) by Frank Sinatra was considered for the game, but was not added due to being considered "too far post-war".[2]
I Forgot To Remember To Forget[]
Due to licensing costs, no songs from Elvis Presley would appear in-game. When asked on Twitter, Josh Sawyer replied that he would've liked "I Forgot To Remember To Forget" to appear in-game.[3] However, the song title is still referenced by the companion quest I Forgot to Remember to Forget.
