I would consider Bayonetta, DMC, etc.. to be beat-em-up too. Anything where you just sit there mashing your buttons like crazy. Also known as button mashers.In that respect, hack'n'slash is really just a more weaponized version of the beat'em'up genre. Mechanically very similar.
If you're working in a factory, that's somewhat understandable - especially if you're moving stuff from a production line. If nobody's there, things are gonna pile up and fall off, causing damages to the employer.I hate jobs that don't let you use the restroom till it's your break. >.>
I have no fucking clue what you are saying or that comic series is about or whats going on in it.I hate my misplaced hope.
I looked at Sinfest. I looked a little back and saw some hope. Yeah, the Sisterhood was still around and yeah, it was still a little preachy but it wasn't as terrible as it had been. And then I saw this panel:

ARGH! $^@#@!
Correct, but then we're getting a bit TOO precise for the general massesThey're more properly Spectacle Fighters.
Exactly, hack'n'slash is just beat'em'up with weapons. Does playing diablo feel like playing double dragon in any way?If you REALLY want an example of a pure hack'n'slash, I'd say something like Golden Axe is probably more accurate.

Bullshit, just because you don't have the reflexes or hand-eye coordination to do anything besides mash buttons frantically, doesn't mean that's the way everyone plays these games.I would consider Bayonetta, DMC, etc.. to be beat-em-up too.

At the base, you're close to right. But given the amount that the depth of the mechanics has increased, something just doesn't add up.Aside from the newfangled 3D and different perspective there's actually very little that separates these games from older titles like Battletoads and Double Dragon.
And here's where you lose me, you're really starting to sound like a gaming elitist. I'll give you points for not being one of those 'git gud' fucks and managing to be at the opposite end of the spectrum though, that's rather rare.It's sad really, because I'd pick an adventure game any day over an action title. Do I want to explore a mansion at my leisure, going from room to room solving puzzles, while collecting 10 special keys? Or do I want to go on a set path (from room 1 to 10, with no option of going back) while having to kill hundreds of monsters? Eh. Monster killing is a bit cliche at this point.. I'll take the puzzle option.
When i think "hack'n'slash" i think balders gate dark alliance on the ps2/gamecube.Exactly, hack'n'slash is just beat'em'up with weapons. Does playing diablo feel like playing double dragon in any way?
Agreed, while i have never been any good at them i KNOW that reflexes and co-ordination is what i lack to play some games properly as im observent enough to notice it, i hate it.Bullshit, just because you don't have the reflexes or hand-eye coordination to do anything besides mash buttons frantically, doesn't mean that's the way everyone plays these games.
Never been a fan of "charity" organizations. Just hang up and don't let them waste your time. I much prefer the charities that you can donate specific items for, because at least then you know every dollar is going to the intended purpose (rather than paying all the charity workers' living and exotic travel expenses). Also not a fan of Goodwill. From what I've seen on eBay they treat donated items with little to no respect.I hate my sleep schedule, I hate hate hate people asking me on the phone to donate $20 a month for whatever they ask for. The second you say no, they make up a sob story or make you feel bad."These people are suffering and you can't donated 20 measly dollars to help them." ...
I'm still mad he married to orehime and not rukia. I'm like wtf. Plus he never used bankai in the end.Heh. I was talking to someone who insisted that Bleach ended after the Aizen arc... and I couldn't really think of any development that I liked enough to really disagree on that kind of thinking. Just have the last chapter happen after Ichigo returns to the human world and ignore anything connected to the ridiculous Quincy-god-thing.
I could not agree more with you on that one. So many good anime have been cancelled or just not been concluded yet...I hate that the anime you wanna finish is no longer available.
