Not a hack and slash. If you read the previews they explain it. Basically you take a more offensive approach to combat as opposed to a defensive. You have to think through how you are going to encounter enemies and be tactical about it.... not a hallmark of a hack and slash game.

 

And when did it become en vogue to call every game that involves using a sword to strike something a hack and slash game. I saw someone do this about FF XV also.... I mean at this rate we might as well call Zelda a hack and slash (its not).

Hack and slash involves a semi mindless destroying of alot of stuff where the challange is not in WHETHER you defeat your foes but how fast can you do it. Think Diablo or Dynasty Warriors.

Yeah, I noticed that too. It seems limited to this site though.
