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?

I don't think it's that bad. It seems overwhelming playing through your first route.

But alot of the busy work social sim stuff is actually fairly unnecessary.

Especially if you reset the chapter to farm support from meals.

I think once people settle in with the game a bit more people will realize that it actually requires far less time sink than the monastery in 3H.
