Re: Hack and Slash is not descriptive
I once tried out a H&S with a futuristic setting that took offense at being called a "Hack 'n' Slash". The objected to the term because they have "firearms and lasers" They were arguing semantics though because the gameplay and code mechanices were the exact same as any other H&S except instead of the text reading "you slash [your opponent] on the leg" it read "you blast [your opponent] in the leg".
As has already been well said, the term has an established context within the gaming community.
