Yes, so I can play it while high and get real euphoria while experiencing the game.

I smoke weed or drink alcohol very rarely these days but I do take opiate painkillers at times and when I did I had to just set the game aside because my reactions are slowed so I can't imagine what it'd be like with alcohol but weed? Hmm  I guess it depends on the strain but this is the type of game where you would improve dramatically with some sativa. In the same way jiu jitsu fighters use weed to up their focus in that sport, where you would be more focused on the tells of and zeroed in on the game. At least that is how it worked for me when I used to smoke weed everyday with games like Wipout and COD4 multiplayer. I would play so much better while high. 

I think my biggest enemy whole playing Sekerio was passive runs at bosses where I would mindlessly fight while listening to YouTube or some shit and runs where I would be super frustrated from loosing so close to the end of a boss but now willing to give up. Weed would cure the later issue and make it easier to avoid putting on "background noise" like podcasts. 

But to each there own and at least you have a fair idea the game isn't targeted or tailored for you so you can avoid purchasing it, something the journalists who have to play tough games for their job don't want so they can review faster without difficulty walls. That is all this debate is at the end of the day. 

I feel more focused while driving high in GT Sport, however when I look at my lap times, they are 1 to 2 seconds slower than normal!
Elite Dangerous works very well as they only danger there is getting distracted from flipping back and forth to web sites while waiting for the ship to arrive at the next destination. While high you're too busy enjoying the pretty colors to flip back and forth :)

Journalists play tons of games for a living though. They need to be somewhat skilled players to do their job. It's fine they warn you when a game is hard as for new comers it would not be a good place to start.

Anyway sometimes it's fun to get high, temporarily set the difficulty to easy and enjoy the pretty colors before getting stuck in a loop lol.
