Websites don't have that blocky '90s shape/look now either. There's an eerie parallel where both the Web and LEGO have moved increasingly from a place of "limited aesthetic suggestions so you can build anything you want" to "it's gonna be much easier for you if you play/watch/live within a walled garden with highly scripted interactions from the entertainment/advertising industry." It's interesting that Minecraft has risen as a reaction to this trend.
