This week in MMO crowdfunding news, not a whole lot happened! In the land of pseudo-MMOs, though, Kickstarter darling and PvE-focused survival sandbox Eco made headlines for its harsh PvP and justice system stretch goal. MassivelyOP’s Andrew Ross also spoke with Eco designer John Krajewski and published a lengthy look at how the title seeks to educate gamers with its survival and permadeath systems.
