How is the new Fire Emblem?

I'm a big fan of the fire emblem games, but I will admit that I didn't like engage. I found the combat to be as engaging as ever, but the anime tropes and characters were really annoying. I liked 3H, though. My issues is that I heard the new one is heavily skewed towards the out of combat activities, particularly the social features. Is this true?

If you liked 3 houses you will probably like it too

Yes, but it was already the case in 3houses, they did what people asked for.

Engage is probably the most "fire emblem" game of these 3, and the one which sold the less.

I just didn’t get attached with the characters in Engage, which made me realize how much I love fully realized characters which I can get attached to. I think a true Fire Emblem game would also have great story and characters
