All the content is available for free online and is very well indexed at Paizo's web site, among others. Additional NPCs, monsters and equipment doesn't feel like rules bloat to me. Granted that the Mythic Rules are a new addition, and the APG and Ultimate books add a few new mechanics. Is that rules bloat? I honestly don't know; as a relatively new Pathfinder player, it doesn't fell overwhelming, merely interesting.If Paizo and WotC are competitors, then Paizo is doing a good job of commoditizing the competitor's core product while charging a premium for, if not monopolizing, their own.</blockquote>
