As someone who recently started trying to get back into Lego I must say I'm super disappointed with the current design philosophy. It's just so fucking daunting how needlessly complex everything needs to be, just the thought of taking a big set apart to modify it puts me off and feels like a giant waste of time, it's like they wanna force you to keep the sets built because even if you wanted to create something else it's so hard because most pieces(and their colors)are so specialized for that specific build.
I haven't given up on Lego but I won't be purchasing a set again, I'll just set a limited color scheme and order lots and lots of general use pieces and stick to my own rudimentary simplistic creations, otherwise it's too overwhelming and too much of an hassle.
Call me a nostalgiafag or not a good builder or whatever, I don't care.
