VA-11 HALL-A – Great Games That Aren’t That Great

March 21, 2019 by Gary Collinson

VA-11 HALL-A is a self-described “cyberpunk bartender action” game that swept up audiences back in 2016. It focused on a bartender named Jill and her day-to-day interactions with a diversity of clientele, each with their own unique backstory and adventures. By combining a hi-tech dystopian society with this slice-of-life feel, the game managed to make the rounds, and was successful enough to warrant a sequel.

However, we have found fans of the title to overlook some glaring flaws present in both the gameplay, mythopoeia, and story; flaws that have left us calling it a good game that just isn’t all that great when you think about it.

Watch the video here and be sure to let us know your thoughts in the comments, on YouTube, or on our social media channels…
