How are FE Three Houses and Engage?

Poll of the Day

Ive been a Fire Emblem fan ever since 7 released in the west, played almost all of them since then. Last one I played was Fates, which I found an extremely off putting game. From the weird, nonsensical story, overly sexualized characters, weird relationship mechanics, strangely dark and glossed over themes, poor map design, etc etc. I just didnt even bother after that. Awakening also had some of these problems, but that was just a more overall enjoyable game. Fates just took these problems to a level that killed my interest in the series for a long time.
So are the switch games better, and actually emphasize strategy, or are they still designed for thirsty weebs first and foremost?
