Lego is not going to exist for much longer. Or it will and the site will become abandoned. And the glitchy lego life will DIE!!!! That anyone can foresee. The LMBs didn't deserve to be left in the dust of that...that app known as lego life!! So obviously it is not going to survive much longer.
Probably also because of how expensive their sets are..... just saying.
Just give it a decade or two...
Yeah, that sucked Don't fix what ain't broke is what they say
Oh yeah! Who has 100 quid lying around to spend on legos these days?
You can get Lego sets for under £100 but I agree Lego sets are losing value. The only themes worth getting are Creator 3 in 1, Architecture, Creator Expert, Technic and Ninjago...
I think that this spoiled new generation doesn't like to play with real solid LEGOs, but they just diddle around on their parents' phones playing games. So people don't buy LEGOs anymore, so LEGO had to fire some staff workers. Because of this new generation being on phones all the time, they thought that an app would help. I don't think it did.
Yeah, kids would now prefer to watch blonde people act stupid on the internet than expand their minds with creativity
Kids. . . .
It's now more common for me to see very small kids (4-6) playing on tablets and phones . . . really?!?
As we all know, the LMBs we all know and love is gone. There will be no looking at who got the top likes of the day anymore Also, the galleries, as of recent, have also shut down. This brings me to my question, OBVIOUSLY the Lego Site could be, going down hill (OPINIONS ARE SUBJECTIVE) but I want to know, why? And what does this mean for the future of the Lego site? Will it keep collapsing until the only thing that remains is the online store? Finally, do making these decisions benefit or harm the site in any possible way?
If you ask me, I'm not very educated on the subject, but I can predict why it happened and what is to come (i may be wrong though, its up to you to decide)
I believe the Lego company has decided to lay off staff members. As a result the LMBs were led to closure because the loss in staff members, the galleries soon followed and I believe that the galleries, throughout this year and the next, will be closing, also as a result.
Now, I also believe the Lego company saw profit in making a mobile app, whether it be extra advertising or whatever, the LMBs obviously weren't cutting it and they knew nobody wanted to join an app (did you really want to join lego life when it was released? lets be real here) so the LMBs were thrown out of the picture.
Now, this is my interpretation and I wanna know what you think, what do you predict happened and why?
Let's be real? I actually did anticipate Lego Life upon its release. My major prediction would be a huge assortment of ways to change my avatar for the better. It was a disappointment.
I heartily agree with Jonmbost - modern children are more interested in video games and movies. They don't want to waste time using their imagination, so Lego has drastically less appeal. (I also blame the school system. They spend the whole day filling their minds with mostly useless information, by the time the come back home, they either don't have time for it, or their minds are so burned out the only thing they can focus on is video games.) Toys themselves are beginning to die in general; most kids would rather buy from Steam than from the Lego Store. It's pretty sad. As a result, Lego can no longer pay for services such as the Galleries and MBs, so they just shut 'er down. Quite unfortunate.

Thier parents just give them technology to keep them quiet. If I had kids I would use video games and stuff as a way as family bonding. Also, have you seen how kids play video games and watch things they are far too young for?

Thank you for agreeing with me.
It's true, though.
BLAME THE SCHOOL SYSTEM!
Homeschool!
the school system has nothing to do with it, it's the parents, the generation, and society pushing it as a "cool thing"
