I wouldn't say it was a bad fit for the original, it was very deliberately made as a celebration of the series in general hence the plot written to link (lol) all of the timelines and characters together. That resulted in a diverse cast of characters and locations befitting a warriors crossover.
Now that already exists, it sort of opens up the opportunity for a game like this without leaving me disappointed in the apparently more limited (but one presumes deeper) focus.
I imagine this will appeal much more to those who put more of a value on the story, so that's cool!

Oh Nintendo!

As I say there are literally hundreds of hours of content to it if you want it with all of the challenge maps, but even the main story alone (+ rolled in DLC from previous releases) will take at least a dozen hours and probably more, so the value proposition isn't
bad.
You'd probably be better looking for it preowned I'd imagine. Switch is the best version with the most content, followed by 3DS and then WiiU (which has DLC). Avoid the 3DS version unless you have a New 3DS though because it isn't but should be a New 3DS only game - I'm pretty sure not only does it run badly on a regular 3DS, but you have less enemies on screen too, which is sort of the point of the game.
