Some scene changes are hit or miss (I especially kind of hated the schedule changes at points, which cost me a 100% max Social Link run that I managed to achieve in FES, and the fact that they didn't do anything to improve the pacing of the summer vacation portion) but the gameplay is a gigantic step up from FES. Definitely enjoyed a lot of the new mechanics and quality-of-life improvements introduced (especially Theurgy) and the reshuffling of skills alongside a more offensive style of combat made for a more enjoyable dungeon crawling experience. I was a bit adamant about the recasting apart from few certain choices since I got so used to the old voice cast but the new cast fully won me over through a good chunk of the game. The Social Links are a lot more engaging now with the added voice acting injecting a lot of personality to the cast of characters, the Linked Episodes are all really solid and Persona 3's story is still engrossing and emotionally impactful as always. All in all, a superb remake.
