Hack'n'slash. Among other synonyms.

Hmm Hack and Slash is not the right term because "bourrin" is an adjective and is not limited to med-fan games (like Diablo).
Diablo is an hack and slash and is "bourrin".
Serious Sam is not an hack and slash but it is "bourrin".
Diablo is an hack and slash and is "bourrin".

Really? Because if the combat in Morrowind was fast and furious it probably would have been more entertaining.

No, I have a personal image of your word matrices.
Repetitive task, repetitive motion, repetitive emotion,
"Bourin" refocuses in my mind's eye as BORING.
From what I've heard of "Morrowind", it or any other game based on that design "vision" would bore me because 1st person "floating eyeballs" in graphic candy land ultimately remind of such stalwart screen savers as "Myst".
If Bethesda is a one trick pony and extrudes these "vision quests", on into this new century,
then I doubt I'll go looking under my bed for my enthusiasm,
think it rolled under there last week.

No, "bourrin" has nothing to do with "boring" 
chiant, ennuyeux, emmerdant, lassant...
"bourrin" is not always a bad thing, some people like it, other don't (but most don't like it when it comes to RPGs).
No one thinks that "boring" is a good thing
Actually "bourrin" really means there's no strategy in combat, and that you don't have to use your mind to fight (as you do in Fallout). This can be boring for some people or enteraining for the others.

Err.... you are making this difficult.
Hack'n'Slash or Run'n'Gun.
How is that?

You don`t imagine the time i spent trying to find an equivalent word in english, or even in portuguese, that would fit, so any help is welcomed.
Not so much simple as Reflexive, or reflex based. At least from my understanding.

Actually Macaco is closer with simple... A game like Raven Shield is not bourrin at all, but it's still reflex based, or twitchy, because you need to aim before shooting. But you have to be carefull, you need to go slowly, to prepare your action, etc...
I think frantic is a better translation.
