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?

Part 2 is a big difficulty jump over the part 1 routes

I finally started part 2 and I thought my characters were pretty good. It kicks your ass instantly. All the enemies have Silver Weapons and they hit like a truck.

Sorta on topic but who is your fav main character so far?

Fabio is by far the funniest character. The Dietrich plot is low key a comedy. I liked Theodora the most out of the 4 main characters though.

Dietrich is a comedy! Hilarious how many characters comment on his beauty. And Fabio is great. I haven’t gotten too far with Theodora yet but like what I’ve seen so far

It’s the thing I’ve noticed the most. Even the gods are like “oh man you are gorgeous”
