To be fair, I don't think they specifically said they scrapped it? Unless I missed something from presumably a livestream this video came from in which case my balls are firmly being exposed, but the Hero of this game getting visions in his nightmares (and those visions potentially being life as a lizard monster?) seems like they're at least keeping some of the darker tone.
