I own a number of Worldworks sets. I also own two Fat Dragon Games sets and a couple of small things from other companies.
In comparison, I will say that I find that the Worldworks games have more of a "Wow, that's gorgeous" factor to them. They are also more expensive, but as posted above the Worldworks sets tend to contain a heck of a lot more material.
There are some Worldworks models that are very complicated. However, their beginner models are just as simple as the Fat Dragon Games' and other companies' beginner models. What may be confusing some people in their comparison is that 1) Worldworks seems to have a more of the advanced sets than other companies; and 2) Worldworks includes sets that have simple, moderate, and very complex models contained in them.
In the long run, I do have to say that I use just about an equal amount of the Fat Dragon Games and Worldworks material in my gaming. The reason is about space. I don't have enough to have walls and doors and towers and complex stuff. I stick to boxes, barrels, tables, chairs, tombs, and other dungeon dressing. For variety, I use almost all the furniture and props I have from both companies. The biggest difference is that while the World Works set has absolutely everything in it, the Fat Dragon set has only props, so the percentage I'm actively using is different.
I really only have one complaint about the products from both companies, and that has to do with wasted cardstock. I have found that if I print exactly as they have laid out, I waste a ton of cardstock. I generally use Adobe to crop the pages so that I can print multiple items on a single sheet of cardstock. I do understand why they spread things out, allowing you to pick and choose more of what you spend your ink on.
To be fair, it's not just those two companies. I have this complaint about pretty much every cardstock scenery item I have.
Now, if I could only find some sets of bushes and trees that both looked decent and were of good quality, my 3D table would be set.
