This week in MMO crowdfunding news, Das Tal failed to meet its Kickstarter goal, but developer Fairytale Distillery intends to soldier on. “Das Tal will continue with development. That is the simplest way to put it,” the firm explained. “The Kickstarter was never our one and only path, and we would not have kicked it off so early if we were risking everything.”
