I don't know what to tell you, man. Interwebbed.

Wikipedia Hack-And-Slash


Just because a game has real time combat, doesn't mean it's a hack n slack game. I gave you 3 definitive examples of games that fall under the hack n slash genre. Bloodborne, and all of the Souls games, do not. That's like calling Zelda a hack n slash game. Darksiders, Heavenly Sword, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow, Dante's Inferno. All Hack-n-slash. Bloodborne is not. It's a dungeon crawler with rpg elements. Not even a little bit hack n slash. 

Unless you have a better definition of Hack-And-Slash I can't agree with you. According to the definition I found Bloodborne falls under the Hack-And-Slash gameplay.

Well if where using wikipedia If you look down the hack and slash wikipedia page you will see a link to a dungeon crawl wikipedia page and it is called a genre there , also it mentions dark souls as an example of a dungeon crawler and Bloodborne fits that bill .

It could be a dungeon crawler as well. The funny thing about video games is that they can fit into multiple genres. Either way, I want to play it. I just want to know more about how the multiplayer is going to work.

At the bolded, that's not what you where saying earlier when you where you wikipidea to define the genre.
