instead of linking to the hybrid thread and the other various threads about productive feedback and where to put it, I will just link to this one thread and point out that people should do the exact opposite of this, it will save me time

Looking through this Playtest and I see no reason why I should bother. All these classes are uninspiring and mechanically bland. Each one is just a "hybrid" and a very literal, and poor one, at that. A couple of them are promising (Investitagor, Arcanist, and Slayer) but they barely get my attention.
I am quite disappointed at this. This book doesn't feel like a book of "CLASSES" to me, but more like a book that should be called "Advanced ALTERNATE Class Guide" as all these classes look to be nothing more than taking two classes, throwing a few abilities together, and giving them a couple of synergetic abilities and calling it a day. There's nothing unique about these, PRESTIGE CLASSES can cover these types "classes", if you wanna call it that. Heck, some of them can be better suited as archetypes.
Even the Magus and Gunslinger were more mechanically unique and interesting than all of these classes combined. None of these classes are as mind-blowing as those two.
Again, sorely disappointed. This is just my critique and if Paizo wants more of my interest (and money) in this product I expect better.
Have you tried the Multiclass Archetypes?
This may be more to your liking. These hybrids have a lot of flavor.
Thanks for your comments.
I'm locking this thread, as "I'm not going to playtest this" isn't a productive line of discussion.
