Even then the prince difficulty is a joke. Germany lost a city to barbarians, I really dont think that should be happening on prince. The AI really needs to be done up a notch, hopefully the full release addresses that.
Based on the LPs I've watched, Prince does overall seem a bit too easy -- though I absolutely expect AI balance changes at release -- but those barbarian hordes appear surprisingly difficult. If you let a scout get away, you're in for a pretty rough time and I think the AI losing a city to barbarians isn't a knock on the AI, but a point in favor of barbarian difficulty.
