Yes, many, but not all, Lego sets these days are more specific and have more specialised parts. But in the end, most children end up with a big box with a jumble of many sets, same as past decades. Maybe the first few days of a new set being introduced is dominated by following the instructions, but after that imagination takes over. My son and his friends played with Lego for over 10 years - there are few toys that comes even close in terms of longevity and value for money (despite the high up-front cost).
