Editing Error in PC Gamer?

Basic primer is that I picked up the Guild Wars Ultimate Guide today and was reading the Guild Wars 2 History Lesson (pages 91-104). My belief is that someone made a mistake when editing and thus left out a portion of the article. I shall refer to pages 92 and 95 for this (93-94 are pictures). The last sentence on the page 92 start like this "The rise of the dragon beneath Orr caused the entire continent to surface, sparking a tidal wave..."; page 95 continues "...while integrating into Krytan society." This sentence makes very little sense and is also is on a completely different topic (Kryta as opposed to the dragons). Does anyone else who has a copy have the same mistakes? I can provide pictures if needed, but my scanner is not with me so it shall be form a camera.|||Quote:

Mine reads the same.|||Maybe he didn't want to be a bad guy anymore and decided to settle down, have kids, find a job.

Good luck Primordius (as finding one when you're a giant evil looking dragon is not easy).



On on a more serious note, Andrew explains this in this thread

Just a quick FYI, PC Gamer inadvertently left a page out of the article during the layout phase. They have told us they will be placing the missing info on their website on September 25th.

|||oo thanks! I was really wondering and had been reading that thread but i got too tired around the 9th page :X. Buy thank you for the heads up on what is going on :D.|||I bet someone at PC Gamer realized at the last second there was no facing page for the one in question and sneakily removed it.

Or it's facing page, probably an ad, didn't meet the deadline and both were sneakily removed. Ooopsie.
