Does anyone else feel like the castles are too generic across civilizations?

It’d be cool if they reflected the unique architecture of their region rather than a basic structure that looks kind of unrealistic anyways. Most castles are’nt a perfectly symetrical tube shape. AOE2 seems to have unique castles across each civilization. I’d like to see that here as well.
