I'm gonna give a recommendation for the blackburn outpost saddle pack. I really like how the drybag is removable, letting me pack items off the bike which is convenient because fumbling with an already heavy-ass bike, loaded and loaded is a pain. Lots of thoughtful touches like the adjustment buckles having cam-style locks so it doesn't loosen up while riding.

It will be on a cx (All-City Macho King) bike for short trips. Mostly paved. Maybe some light gravel. It might also end up on a Karate Monkey for more rugged terrain. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The Brits have been touring using these for years...They have it figured out. You can't beat a Carradice with a Bagman support. Whatever the bag, though, the load position is less than ideal....While you are seated it's pretty good, but as soon as you stand, things handle like crap. On the plus side, you can mount one on most bikes so you don't have to buy a new, different type of bike to take an occasional short tour.

After years of trying all sorts of bags, I stumbled unto this by Ortlieb.
https://www.ortlieb.com/en/Saddle-Bag/ I got the medium size but they also have a larger version. I carry 2 spare tubes, sun screen spray bottle, Epi pen, Lezyne multi tool, 2 tire levers, patch kit, a new Ottolock and a folding back pack bag and I still have room for some more stuff. The bag itself is lighter than any other I have had. I highly recommend it.

I have a revelate seat bag & half frame bag and I've been happy with them, although it does waggle a bit out of the saddle and if you dont have much seat tube showing or have a small FS mountain bike frame it may not work for you. I use a 2L platypus water bladder in the half frame bag, a drybag strapped to the bars gets clothes & sleeping bag, and hammock setup, stove/cups, and whatever else in the seat bag.

I'm a fan of Dill Pickle Gear seat bags. Choose your size; customize.

Man, I just use my trunk bag mounted on my rear rack to carry that much stuff!

I've been attracted to the Blackburn bag, but read critical reviews of it swaying - have you had these issues? Seems like a relative bargain too.

Oveja Negra Gearjammer. They cover it all. They are tops for construction, design, materials, weight, and durability. I have not found a better seat bag for bike packing.
https://www.ovejanegrabikepacking.co...ammer-seat-bag If you want something more traditional. I give a tip to the hat for acorn bags.
