If you ain't cheating, you ain't trying. Just doing the prepackaged cheats is like coloring in a coloring book as you ain't creative if you simply stay in the designated lines. It's safe and cozy but where's your sense of adventure?
I mean... Sure, go ahead, knock your socks off.
The bards will tell the tale of Mr Adventurer, who went in a journey to reach the conclusion that someone else that...
oh, I don't know... actually looked at the code had already figured out.
While you go out of your way to step out of the line, there's other people that go beyond and find out why the lines are there in the first place.
So, for future reference.
The game fucking breaks if you edit the variables. There are some that don't matter at all and are there just to count stuff, there are others that are strongly tied to the story progression so if you modify them you break shit, capisce?
Why the fuck did I get winded about this?
