I don't know, I always found AoE2 to be broken. I would slowly build a tower in my enemies base.

The old AI wasn't particularly good. Playing versus modern AIs, or actual people, is an entirely different experience!
It's not broken just because your opponents are bad.
Tower? heck take a group of villagers with your army. Build castles in enemy territory as you capture it! (or maybe bombard towers) That doesn't mean the game is broken though.
Teutonic town centre rush was ridiculous.

I miss that game.

I also always felt it was broken in many ways. But that wasn't actually a bad thing. In some regards it was fun because of that.
