Best thing to do initially when it goes like this is to simply press the ALT + Enter keys to go to window mode

Above is the content of the "client_settings" .ini file, but the content is for my PC and my monitor res is 1920 x 1080. So if you want you can paste the above content in your games .ini file , if you face any further problems just change the resolution according to your monitor. I have underlined (IN BLACK) the places you got to change the resolution.
I hope this works for you, cuz it did for me.

Delete the client_settings.ini it'll reset everything

So does that mean you are running in super low res and settings at the moment or we’re you able to configure things back to your optimal settings?
I tried going into my ini file and pasted those settings things but the game won’t start up anymore.
I deleted it for now and I’ll try again on my day off or something
