I think people prefer the older games simply because many of the fans here grew up with them. The newer games are all good in terms of game play, if not better. Games like Fire Emblem 7 didn't even have skills, or class changing. Or pairing up.
So no, it definitely didn't get shallower. It got more complex.
Fire Emblem Echoes is my current favorite in terms of Modern Fire Emblem. Extremely well-produced, classic Fire Emblem, with some twists and new mechanics. It lacks the series staple weapon-triangle, but I don't consider that a detriment. More of a way to change things up.
