Blue bricks will also yellow. I have also seen very discolored red bricks.

What do they look like?  More brown than normal blue?  The discoloured red
bricks I've read about have been described as maroon, but I have never
experienced this, just discoloured white and pink so far.  How bad can LEGO
get?  Like, if a white piece was in direct sunlight for 15 years, what colour
would it be?

The blue bricks really do have a yellow cast to them, not a brownish cast.
Another interesting difference is that they go together a lot tighter.

I'm not sure the limit of how bad white LEGO can discolor, but it definitely
can get the color of a perfectly toasted marshmallow.
