I’m thinking about buying Steinhardt’s Guide to the Eldritch Hunt, what do you guys think about it?

I’m probably going to buy the full book from MonkeyDM and I was wondering what those of you with the player pack and actual book think of it? 

I think the player options are incredibly poorly designed.  The subclasses in particular are vastly more powerful than even extremely strong official subclasses, and many of them seem to disregard intentional limitations on what classes can do.

I personally would not recommend. 

Most of my party is still learning the game so I make pretty strong characters so our dm doesn’t have to worry about the party dying all the time, so I don’t mind a little power

 Steinhardt's options are fine.

Besides, if the PHB was a hard limiter on how powerful subclasses are allowed to be, we'd have a constant string of Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide-tier bland and wimpy subclasses that either get HEAVILY revised later/barely at all, or stagnate by being stuck in the most mid books in the system ever.
