Pathfinder 1e is basically the old absurd buildcrafting of the D&D 3.5e splat sprawl, but with a solid balance pass to make it more workable.
Pathfinder 2e is basically "what if D&D 5e had decided to fix core issues with D&D's design and also gone all in on making every character class flavorful and varied and also balanced it pretty well at the same time, instead of doing the exact opposite of all of that like it did."
