Connor refers to the skeletons in the witch's castle as "victims of the witch's wiles." This is due to the fact that she was meant to have been able to shift into the form of a beautiful girl before the idea was dropped due to the loss of the game's intended engine.
Connor goes through most of the game armored but without a helmet except at the end, when he wears the Helmet of the Golden Mask. This puts him at a disadvantage in battle because his head is unprotected.
In the game introduction, there is an enormous boulder next to Sara's house. It is no longer there when the player gets control of Connor.
