There's pros and cons. But the direction of unreal seems extremely positive and the direction of unity seems very negative. Unreal's providing significant updates with a pretty clear roadmap and lots of content being made available to indie devs for free.

Unity is arguably getting worse and seems to lack a cohesive strategy. Last I checked, which was a few years ago, the engine doesn't have functioning networking feature (online multiplayer). They used to, but they deprecated it before failing to launch their new one. There's other stories in a similar vein.

You can of course make it work with third party plugins but it's not a good sign of engineering quality.
