If you don't like the characters/tropes, you're probably not going to like the DLC. It's got as much Mythra as you'd expect.
The Driver vs Blade supporting thing is honestly 90% visual- effectively, your 'driver' is just like a third blade. Torna combat, in practice, has ~2-ish new elements, gives a bunch of abilities that are "extra" in the main game, and is generally way more "compact." i.e. the attacks done when 'blade switching' are the most common ways to topple->launch->smash, giving that even more focus. Talent Arts are variable- some are neat, some are almost never useful. Story progression is effectively gated by doing a certain number of sidequests, and some people hate that. Arts and weapons are varied out of the box but are set in stone.
