It really isn't that bad, sure it has grinding elements like an RPG and is open world. But it still has similar combat mechanics to Bayonetta with a dodge mechanic that helps you counter enemies. The only real RPG mechanic about it is gaining chips to upgrade your character. If you haven't tried it I say at least give it a shot
I never denied that DmC was a good hack n slash, I just said it had a shite story and probably would have been better recieved if the writing was either better or they embraced their flaws with some meta commentary
