Any opinions on this? Is this suitable when just starting out?

This is a weird bundle.

The Intimate Strings and Frozen Strings are generally much higher regarded than the Epic Strings, to a point where they get used even by people with thousands of $$$ worth of orchestral libraries.

The Firewood Piano is purely a character piano and the opposite of versatile. I'd get the Grand or even the Tack Piano (which has a preset for a regular upright sound) instead.

Can't say anything about the other Originals included, but I don't think they're highly regarded at all...

Not very versatile. I would get  Musio subscription for 10 bucks a month to start with good sounds (Cine Samples) right away.

I have everything besides the Firewood piano. Which is €20 as an upgrade. Which is a discount of €10 on an Originals. Tempting, but I don't know if I got use for it.

It’s one of the largest (deeper sampled) pianos in the series and belongs to the Lumineers.

Haha I watched this yesterday. It convinced me it was not of interest to me.  So I'm all good.
