I’m watching the new Shogun and wondering which games from that period (or a bit earlier) are really good. Thoughts?

Nioh. It might not be what you’re looking for since it’s fantasy but it does mix in some real elements from that period and even has some historical characters. It’s a pretty good game.

Also in the same genre and also fantasy/samurai themed, Sekiro. Not sure about historical accuracy, but you will enjoy the gameplay or die trying. Or both, those aren’t mutually exclusive

Nioh can be best described as “dark souls gameplay with Borderlands itemization” which I personally love. It’s not for everyone. But the folks it is for will love it. You know who you are.
