Some of the newer sets have the "issue" in my mind that they aren't balanced. Either they use tiny bricks and build up everything, or they're based on pretty large single pieces. The mid-size bricks seems less used now compared to the sets I got as a kid 30 years ago. When I pick out Lego sets for my daughter it's often based on the type of bricks included, and sometimes we just get classic brick sets. Building using the 1 - 4 stud piece, especially the flat ones, get boring pretty quickly.
