SOLUTION (for me): Go to Windows Game Controllers (widows key, search GAME CONTROLLERS), click Advanced... on the dropdown for preferred device SELECT YOUR CONTROLLER. Try again.

So this ALMOST did it for me. It helped sort out what the actual issue is. If for any reason you have anything else that shows up in Game Controllers other than your actual controller - unplug/disconnect it. It seems like having multiple "controllers" (for me it was a foot pedal) causes controllers to not work. Something about the game only using whatever the first detected "controller" is.

Hopefully that works for anyone else also.

I had to unplug my whole HOTAS rig but this did it for me too.

Maybe I should learn to play Elden Ring with a joystick and throttle.

Thank you, kings. Unfortunately the other "controller" is my mouse, but I can work around that.

Releasing the game on PC with terrible performance is taking a cue from HZD.

Hoping it's not too bad with my PC specs. A GTX 1070 is showing its age at this point and a TR1950x was never a gaming CPU to begin with, maybe it will still be fine.

Popping back in to report on dualsense support for PC (thanks for the reminder BP): not seeing it. Every game I've played that supports dualsense will immediately detect it if it's plugged in, mine stays inert after launching ER.

Also, the game hangs around after quitting so if you're thinking about maybe refunding it before the two-hour limit, end the process in the task manager.

One hour in so it's way too early to say for sure but so far I am... kind of disappointed. Lots of things are great but it was very quick to remind me why I don't like open world games - maybe I bought into the hype about how much there was to explore and discover a bit too much but there's really not very much to find.

maaannnn i hope i don't feel the same way.

altho the thing that bugs me most about open world games is tons and tons of filler content and that doesn't seem the case here?
