That is default windows, if it's misconfigured then it ships misconfigured. I've done nothing except click the slider that turns it on, and then 5 seconds later off again as the dark mode settings menu blasts me with the full force of the screen.

If default doesn't work, I don't really feel like repeatedly blasting my eyes with full brightness until I figure out how to make it not burn out my retinas.

I think the issue is HDR requires the r part, being range, and I want it to not blast my eyes which anything above 20% brightness does if I'm inside, and default probably uses 100% of the brightness range and that actually causes pain.

Edit: to be clear, never made it to a game. Getting flash banged by the settings menu was bad enough thanks, don't need to deal with something intended to be a flashbang.
