How are most VN sequels like?

The answer to the rather open question is "wildly variable". Some spin offs set in the same world but with new characters far excel their original while others are somewhere between ho hum and an embarrassingly bad testimony to a company trying to make the most of a successful original. There are no rules as to whether a sequel is good or not. My staple VN project - To heart 2 was a much more comprehensive and better VN than To heart as a spin off with different characters, yet the sequel to that, To Heart 2 Another Days, was nowhere near as good as TH2, being average and inconsistent.

I think it really depends on the VN.

Muv Luv, for example, has the first game with conventional routes. The second game's events transpire the same way regardless of which route you pick (just pallette swaps for a few CGs) while the third is almost a kinetic novel (MLA has almost no choices)

Zero Escape has a brand new setting and a (mostly) brand new character cast. The first game had a "true ending" though, the sequel just follows that.
