D&D 5E Best "Late Stage" 5e-Compatible Products?

[Retreater]

Let's assume that someone isn't planning on a) purchasing the official 2024 WotC books; and b) doesn't want to go all-in on something like Tales of the Valiant.
Where we stand right now, with what has been released, what are considered some of the best 5e-compatible products? Maybe it's a revised monster book? Perhaps it's something that adds play options (crafting, psionics, campaign management, etc.)?

So far I'm thinking of things like MCDM's Kingdoms and Warfare, Strongholds and Followers, and Flee Mortals; EN Publishing's Level Up line. Anything else?

Does it have to be something that's already out, or can we include something that's coming down the Kickstarter pipeline? curious

I mean, if we're pretty sure of the quality through previews, I guess upcoming works are okay.

I asked because to me it looks like the Kickstarter for Ryoko's Guide to the Yokai Realms https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/dndshorts/ryokos-guide-to-the-yokai-realms-a-5e-tome is showing some of that late stage 5e potential.

Hit Point Press’ Humblewood setting was really good IMO. It did a good job of creating a unique vibe for a 5e setting while offering some pretty interesting race options for it.
