I was playing this game in college like 16yrs ago. Me and a few buddies played it regularly. While studying with one of them I’m taking a break and watching him play. He’s playing against the AI on one of the harder difficulty levels with Raging Barbarians on. Then he gets a warning about a barbarian camp near one of his major cities. I’m watching and was like, “Dude you should take care of that before it gets bad”. “It’s not a problem. I got the forces to deal with them anytime I want.” He is pretty arrogant. A couple turns later they attack. I’m watching like 30 barbarians from that camp raid his city. It took 5 to break his defense and the other 25 pillaged all of his resources.
I fucking miss this game!

Knew a guy like that. We finally convinced him to try horizon zero dawn after I already beat the game. So now it’s on new game plus extremely hard experienced players only pass this point please. He claims that’s how hard he wants it to be. So I let him get stomped on by sentient lawnmower. He complained it was too hard after that.
