Hi. Panth has been thru some issues in the last couple of months, and right now most players are waiting to see what VR does next.
These last few posts by VR will give you some idea of where things are:

Of the few people who are currently playing, about half are on the Public Test Realm server that opened in May (requires a different client) and half are on Stormona EA server. A link to DL the PTR client and instructions about installing it are here https://www.pantheonmmo.com/download/
