This is getting into religious matters; namely those who worship at the Kai Kraus Temple as opposed to those who worship at the Church Of The Big Four. For what it does, Bryce is okay....but it also has not been in active development since before Vue 4 was released. That is a long time for a CG program to languish, and the world has moved on. There are significant engine features that Bryce simply is too old to have (HDRI, IBL, more than basic animation capabilities, =nothing= approaching Vue Infinite's Ecosystem, etc). It works, and does a good job. But you have to keep in mind that people in general have a real dislike of learning new things. The Bryce workflow is next to useless in Vue, and vice versa. If you are talking stills, you can get good images out of both. If animation, Vue wins the case, no question.
