Add weather, life (complex objects moving around with AI and path-finding), lighting, sounds, physics and then we will take a look again.
It's a moot point to discuss a nearly static render.

actually lighting is damn good and very realistic, physics is there just not shown at this video and I guess pathfinding and sound aren't really an issue. However, I doubt this kind of engine (voxel engine) will ever be used for something like fps or heavy action games. If they manage to develop engine in such a way that it can accept other modules for other various "render stuff" it might be possible for it to get utilized.
On the other hand, I see these kind of projects more like CV's for job hunting Wink
