I would ask this at r/Crowfall, however I do not want to get a biased answer. I saw in their latest interview that they have one (big) milestone left until final release. I know that doesn't mean much consisting there game has The MMORPG curse of being delayed for year. The animations still look lanky and I can't find any recent decent gameplay videos that show off all the content. How is the game right now?

In Alpha, come back in a year.
I saw in their latest interview that they have one (big) milestone left until final release.
No you saw in their latest interview that they have one (big) milestone left until they're in alpha. The development/play that is happening in Crowfall right now is actually "pre-alpha testing". Frankly the game feels more polished than plenty I've played in alpha/beta to date, but there are definitely key systems of the game missing, and I think the resolution to call the next release the start of actual alpha makes sense. Sooo the question is... are you looking to alpha test a game or play a game?
Crowfall is already kinda fun, but it definitely isn't a real "game" yet. Like don't get it if you are interested in having something fun to play, because it isn't there.
It's not a good idea to ask how a game is doing that is in alpha. When they start doing betas and bringing more people in, and the devs themselves are asking how the game is, that's when you should ask.
Crowfall is playable, but it's still very early access. The game will be getting less updates so that the dev's can focus on the next major patch. The next major patch will probably be when you would want to hop in.
They did not say the game will be released after the one big milestone they said they would be ready to go into ALPHA testing, which for them means balancing/ polish, bug smashing , making sure the game is fun etc after that big milestone. The milestone is targeted for Febuary 2020. Which means the game probably will "soft launch" = (launch without using any marketing budget) end of 2020 if they meet their feb release date target.
Play archeage unchained now then next year play crowfall
I saw in their latest interview that they have one (big) milestone left until final release.
Correction, they are one big milestone away from entering alpha. Once they finish it, they'll likely work on adding content, and polishing the content we currently have. Check back in a few months.
Honestly, the mmo Reddit is the absolute worst place to get info about MMOs. Honestly.
I have access to the game and while it can be fun if you find a guild, I’d still say to wait it out right now... wait until the big update comes out with all the new features
First off, you ask here where there is a ton of bias until the sub is super positive just upon release of an mmo before they shit on it again after 2 months (the idiots are clamoring for the temporary non p2w archeage right now).
And second, you're asking about the status of an alpha game.
Thanks for not answering my questions.
Welcome to the sub friend, as you can see most people answer like the guy above, making things up acting as if they are right without backing it up with anything.
I wish I could answer the question for you but I stopped following crowfall quite a bit ago.
And then you ask in the sub that shits on every MMO in existance?
That means we're not biased. We shit on everything.
Lol I thought that too. You're gonna get a bias everywhere you go. Id rather get an answer here instead of a bunch of shills on the subreddit dedicated to the game.
Pretty much everyone on the subreddit will tell you to wait to buy the game until launch unless you actually enjoy early testing, or want to support the project with your money. If you register on the official website, you'll get invited to the free closed beta phase and can make up your own mind then.

Except BDO. This sub loves BDO.
You spelled GW2/ESO/FFXIV wrong.
People shit on ESO nonstop on this sub. Don't know why though, it's an amazing game.
We shit on those games too.
Slap Archeage in that too.
