Hi! Thank you for your reply. As requested, I ran the game via command line and appended -nojoy to the command. Indeed the keyboard seems to be the culprit considering I needed to use this even when the keyboard was the only connected device (I unplugged the mouse, gamepad, mic, webcams, etc.). The keyboard I’m using is a Keychron K5 Max, a QMK / VIA programmable mechanical keyboard, however I have nothing mapped in a way that could be reported as such.
I’m not sure what can be done now, short of unplugging my keyboard, as I’d like to use an actual gamepad during play. :(
