I agree that Team Ninja likes to hide important mechanics several NG+s deep. Sometimes they can have profound effects on playstyle. The Niohs are my go-to series grinding out a show or Yotube on my second screen. The games require JUST enough mechanical difficulty to be engaging while letting you tune everything else out. Like you said, the rest if forgettable, however, I always like how distinct the locales look and feel.

Nioh 2 also has one of the better character creator's I've seen. I can finally use transmog along with a female model. The only downside if your Yokai will always get double-Ds.
