Welp i boot the first game up and see xbox buttons around and my mouse and keyboard does absolutly nothing except for escape which closes out of the character select window and causes the story button to flash and then I have to hit alt+f4 to close out of the game since I am unable to do anything else with it. I don't even have a controller to plug in which basically makes this game unplayhable for me if I can't even get past the menu.

Send a ticket to support.

The game is basically defaulting to controller without one plugged in and I tried looking for config files in the usual places and found none so I can't change it there so that I can tell the game ok you are wrong there is no controller connected to my pc so change to keyboard and mouse mode before I even open the game please.

So yeah this makes no sense to me.

Support may have an answer. If not, you may be able to get refunded. My advice beyond that is to disable all USB devices except your keyboard and mouse since sometimes games read the drivers for cameras or printers as controllers.
