The story does weave in personality of both characters quite well, despite the story being somewhat disconnected early on, only properly shining through during the third act.

The gameplay is great, but in my opinion, It Takes Two is still better in many ways.

I ended up finishing the game in 1 sitting with my friend who lives across the globe from me with NO connection issues at all (0 disconnects/lag in 14+ hours of playing).
