>>386777/out/ probably doesn't like "tacticool" gear as a rule because it's not /k/ and the tastes differ.
HOWEVER. I would tell you that the particular pack you chose is by a company that isn't very good, and is cashing in on the "tactical operator" trend. Their webbing is also known to not be milspec and therefore you'll have a bitch of a time trying to rig any webbing based smaller compartments on there if you so chose (which is the purpose of the molle/pals webbings).
If you want a pack of about that size and style, look into a used ILBE "assault" pack or even a molle 2 assault pack. Its the smaller backpack that clips onto the marine (or army) full pack.
The ILBE assault (see picture) can be bought for under 30 dollars for a so-so condition pack. You might have to replace a buckle, or duct tape a small hole like I did, but it'll carry you far.
