I think Shadows of New York is a really big improvement on a lot of what Coteries was trying to do - not only by having a more cohesive narrative (while still giving you some choice here and there so on replay it's not all the same) and a significantly stronger, established main character in Julia, but by also providing its own distinct tone separate from Coteries . Coteries of New York is a very bleak, cynical game about kindred society's power systems and the futility of resisting because even if you're an excellent chess player, your opponent is just going to flip the board and punch you in the face the second they start losing. Shadows , on the other hand stands out in its overarching narrative - rather than painting it all as bleak and hopeless, you are presented over the course of the story with these conflicting ideas of either inserting yourself into the systems of power to save your own skin and get ahead or running away from all of it to live your (un)life on your own terms. I think both of these themes work really well for the World of Darkness (Vampire in particular) and make this game feel really narratively strong and worth a replay as you see both paths that Julia can go down and the type of kindred she could become (although one ending was canonised over the other, and without spoiling I'm happy with the ending they picked). The art direction for this game is also an absolute slam dunk just like Coteries , in my opinion - with painted, almost ethereal visuals, a moody soundtrack and a certain element of dark, often very referential humour that made me laugh on occasion.
The last game in this series was better at being a game. This is very much an experience on-rails, like a visual novel. The writing wasn't consistently good, the central mystery was not resolvable that I could tell, I found myself skipping through the writing as it was nearing the end. If the game isn't going to be a great game, it could at least be good at being a book, but this one didn't land for me. I guess, on sale, I did play it through to the finish? So, not the worst game. But bummed me out to not be more similar to the first one, which I very much liked. Oh, and I did not like the TOTAL change-of-character for some characters from the previous game. Writer really hated Benoit for some reason, and I consistently liked him in the first game, they made him a troll in this one for no reason that I can discern. I'm waffling between recommend and not recommend. I'm going to hit recommend, but if there was an in-between of "meh," I would be selecting that.
This was pretty decent, though I enjoyed Coteries of NY more. Julia can be a bit hard to like at times and some of the writing comes off a bit awkward but I enjoyed the direction they took most of the returning characters and had fun trying to unravel the mystery. I got a pretty abrupt bad end however, I felt it didn't really make sense based on my choices but VNs often drop the ball on the endings so it's pretty minor overall. Worth playing if you liked the first game
Shadows of New York is an interesting detective story, with solid artwork and appropriately moody music. It weaves in many characters from the first game, but wisely gives you only one protagonist, which allows it to tell a much less generic tale. There's no gameplay here, so as long as you're looking for a novel, this is a good one.
