It was quite fun and engaging for a bit, but the levels slowly got kind of boring and rather frustrating to navigate. Eventually, they all kind of felt the same - rainy hills with thunder, a maze in a temple, moonlit village town, etc... and the low enemy variety didn't really help much.

The story confused me, and I didn't quite follow it much, but that's probably because I don't know much about this period of history. It did make me want to get educated, though!

I eventually got stuck on a boss in the fourth world and didn't have the strength to grind at it, since I had already stopped having fun at that point. I don't think I'll come back to Nioh 1, but I'd gladly try the sequel.
