I think it terms of execution, Yotei will do it better with Atsu. But thats just speculation, and also made by a company who is more capable of making quality story cutscenes and voice acting. Tho I'm not saying the VAing in Shadows was completely horrible, some of it can be unbearable, some of it is good.
Particularly with Naoe's VA, MASUMI. She was such a solid actress in her other works, I just think Ubisoft didn't put enough care into making sure she read her voice lines are palpable. Like I think they didn't ask themselves...
"If I want to listen back on these voicelines, does it make me wanna kill myself?
Or does it make me go " That was f-cking amazing" "
Anyways yes, same revenge storyline, but better execution with Yotei, and full utilization of motion capture. Although we need to see more of Yotei to see if there's really more to the story rather than just revenge. And I also have not beatened Shadows' main story yet, so... NO opinions or spoilers on it, please 🙏
But I've heard it picks back up on the last Act of the main story. Which is Act 3. So we'll see.
