HL:A is very nice looking and a manages to be HL in vr. That said there are several narrative games better including Boneworks, Lone Echo and Stormland. In HL:A you never really feel like you are outdoors, it's a series of tunnels and small rooms, The open areas have a definite matte painting feel. The limited interactivity is made worse with the item hunting making sure you look under every box for resin. Despite there being pipes and shovels lying around, there's no melee. For some reason, npcs run and hide behind counters to talk to you.
