and a lot of those people want 3H 2 Electric Boogaloo.
I'm sure they do to an extent, but this also feels like too much of a generalization. They want a game with similar tone and feel of 3H - which many games in the series also have. It's hardly the first one to have a serious narrative with branching paths and multiple sides. Even just 'serious narrative' probably would have sufficed. Engage looks and is written like a Saturday morning cartoon.

Fire Emblems are typically fun to replay and blitz through,
I disagree. No games that are as long as typical FE games are run to replay numerous times. Three Houses maybe has it worse there with the monastery pacing, but the vast majority of people weren't going for their 6th (?!) replay regardless. You only need one to create a memorable experience. That's the most important thing for me, and for most others, I think.

Engage really only appeals to two types of people - someone who heavily prioritizes strategy gameplay and can actively ignore sub-par writing, or someone who actively loves embarrassing anime nonsense. Those are smaller markets than what 3H being a well-rounded experience hit.
