Just need some advice from everyone please, i am considering buying the base MacBook pro model and was wondering if it's good though for day to day surfing, video streaming and Netflix, maybe occasional StarCraft gaming, do you all think I'd be okay with that or upgrade to touch bar?

In my opinion, the answer is a definite YES!

Have you looked at the 2018 13” one? I’ve heard some bad things about the throttling on the 15” ones but haven’t heard anything about the 13” ones.

I have the 2017 MacBook Pro 13in (without touchbar) and love it for its build quality and smoothness when it comes to scrolling between apps. Can’t really see why you would need anything more unless you want a bigger screen or if you need the power. And don’t know if you’ll need the power, it is 99% certain that you don’t!
