One recent dev stream outlined their excitement to move soon from pre-Alpha to Alpha in the near future.
Personally, I would rather them take their time and release a complete MMO than a half finished product. Seems like they are progressing along fine though.

Luckily Pantheon isn't a matter of if, but when. They've already stated that they have full funding, the money they are getting from pledges is just speeding up their development time. They are not backed by any major publishing houses (EA, Activision, Ubisoft etc.) So There is no deadline or pressure to push the title out early and charge their player base for beta testing for them.
I am very excited for what Pantheon is doing. I am worried though that it won't be able to keep up without appealing to the casual market. Or that it will be a bust because they refuse to do pay to win or a cash market at all.
We all know how we feel about MMOs. We wouldn't be here if we didn't appreciate how hard it should be, but unfortunately there's a big difference between 1,500 and 1.5 million.
