Okay, let's see here, what have I done already?
I already did a clean boot, so that rules out SilencE81. When I first had the problem I didn't have Geforce Experience, so that rules out SilencE81's other suggestion. I don't have the option to reinstall the entire laptop because I'm in another country (and honestly if you have to factory reset for one game to work properly? There is a big problem there).
I haven't actually tried to run the game through intel, but I think I will try that just to see what happens. I already did update my drivers with my intel device and it did me no good. The stupid intel control panel is just as helpful as the nvidia control panel (which is not at all) because the nvidia control panel relies on the idea that the intel control panel will have all of the settings, and the intel control panel has jack squat for settings.
