To be fair, the previous Unity version he links to is obviously a beta design. It actually says "beta" at the top. For me, the Unity version loads and runs smoothly.

The Blend4Web version seems more polished because it is more polished. They've toned down the lighting, completely changed the interface, and reduced the map area.. you're confined to quite a small space. The Unity version you can drive further, only the ground texture needed work. Zoom out though and you'll see why the ground texture is more blurry than the Blend4Web version.

I'm sure Blend4Web is great, but what isn't great is that Blender is required!

But isn't Unity required when using the Unity plugin? Blender is at least open source!
Yeh true. I was responding more to his criticisms of that version based on the quality of the product...

Bezuhoff says: "Honestly, it looks like an unfinished game. The scene loads slowly (especially the terrain), functionality is primitive – you can only drive, the overall picture is of horrible quality."

I think that's a bit unfair considering it only looks like an abandoned game because it is an abandoned game.
