my friend started to play this as he did not like fried liver or evans gambit from me. what would one play here for white? ng6 seems like such a bad move. i would just castle and maybe d4

4.d4 is a killer.  You threaten to destroy the kingside and blow open the center.  big advantage for white.

Archerknight

Yup, d4.
