How are the included VSTs? I mess around in FL Studio and have a physical Ensoniq ESQ-1, like making industrial sounding ambience/mood stuff, mainly for narrative purposes for animation. Been afraid to get VSTs from the High Seas (if you catch my drift) due to concerns of malware being packaged in them. So like, are these Synth VSTs good/versatile for that Dark/Moody/Dirty Industrial sound?

There are so, so, so many free VST synths that are suited for sound design, and just as many FX VST. even 15 year old VST can be incredibly rich with some tweaking to taste. For your genre, you have a virtually unlimited sound palette For free
I had an original Memorymoog back in the day and have been looking go get that VST, so getting 60% off with a bunch of other stuff thrown in was a no-brainer.
Mixcraft 9 is a DAW included in the middle pack. I've used a previous version and it worked well for how I used it. I can't speak to how smoothly it works with everything else in the bundle.
There are a lot of choices and DAW's can be expensive. Reaper is a good option to start with, you can use it for free and decide to pay later to remove the launch nag screen. Universal Audio's Luna is also free. Then you have pay options like ProTools, Ableton and Bitwig. You will probably also need something like a focusrite Scarlett if you want to record your guitar by microphone or with a modeler. A midi keyboard controller is also useful if you want to use the samples from this bundle.

So it will probably cost me a few hundred to get started. Thaks for the feedback.
I've been picking up bundles like this for a few months now for when I finally get myself motivated to start using it. I figured a lot of this stuff could be used for streaming/YT videos as well as making backing tracks for songs I've written. For the prices you really can't beat it, and some of their bundles come with a voucher so you can jump on the sites and get exactly the pack(s) you want. I held onto my voucher for a while and just used it during BF and ended up with easily double the packs/samples I would have gotten otherwise.
There is/was a FL studio bundle on either Humble or Fanatical that gave you 20% off FL studio included in the bundle. Seems to be a lot of peoples GO-TO DAW still to this day.

You'll need a DAW to use the these with if you don't have one already.
