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 3H and disliked Engage, you will probably like Fortune's Weave. It improved in some things like combat and maps while it regressed in some others like accessories and all that. I would say there is a lot more management outside of the Map -> Aftermath -> Story -> Preparation -> Map loop (even more than 3H), but somehow Dagsion has not been boring for me, might be because the 4 lord routes are very different.

Difficult ramps hard on Part 2. Don't know why people are asking already for Maddening difficulty. I think you'll enjoy it.
