This has some pretty gamebreaking bugs.
The first fight is bugged so that you get the lose screen as soon as it starts. If you press continue, the game simply crashes and nothing happens. If you use the win cheat (which still shows the lose screen, but allows progress), all characters disappear from the map and the locations don't go through the day/time cycles, basically bricking the game except for scripted events that occur in sleep.
It's also a coin flip on whether you get the Charm of Scutiny at all, meaning you might not even be able to do the sidequests before the first fight.
Really is a shame, because the art is unique and there is a lot of content (even though the gallery unlock cheat doesn't actually unlock it all), but you can't get to it.
EDIT: Literally, the only way I was able to get past the first fight and not have the game brick was to click on lose. This game is pretty much unplayable without abusing the cheats.
