I'd say the same about the hack-and-slash style of RPG. You just have a
variety of (mostly) melee weapons instead of a variety of guns and (often,
not always) the hack-and-slash is 3rd person, not 1st.

Believe me, if you try just hacking your way through Diable without
thinking, you have a very dead character very quickly.
