To dark, Can't see where I'm aiming can't even see enemies.
ok my eyes aren't great and when I aim I can't see the tiny dot at all. And I can't see enemies at all.
Is there any color blind or options to make it easier to see in game?
Also the game is WAY to dark. tried adjusting gamma slider all the way left and picture still easily visible, gamma seems broken.

Any fixes out there or config tweaks?

The Gamma sucks, they used a filter or something. Try adding to your launch options;
-deependark -forcenohdr
If that doesn't work play in a dark room.

Adjust the screen correctly. Directly on the device and not with any third-party nonsense. If necessary, use built-in presents, but these are just as rough settings as the specifications from rtings and co. Each panel needs its own settings. Some have a bluer tint, others have more red, some are brighter, etc. etc. Even within the same series and batch. The standard that developers, studios, etc. follow is achieved through manual setting.
HDR needs additional adjustments because it counts like a own mode. And once everything is set up correctly, you can check the HDR and SDR again in the Windows settings.

In addition, some people have a completely wrong understanding of color theory and completely misalign their screens. Then come years of "This and that game has stupid gamma values. Today, developers don't put any effort into it anymore. The colors are unrealistic. Everything is too dark. etc. etc."

There are enough websites that offer you decent material to test and adjust. (burosch or the like) Very few of the really good things are free, but you can use them forever. Don't use videos and images that come directly from the browser. Compressed data distorts the values.

Once the device is set up correctly, you will never have to make any further adjustments in any game or software.

Cost factor: 0 - 30 euros (depending on the amount of material such as 4k, 8k, HDR, images, video, etc.)
Working time: ~30 minutes
Everyone has to decide for themselves what is ultimately cheaper. Constant hassle and fixing things around it or investing something once.

All in all: The game is not too dark and has no gamma problems. At night you can see well outdoors even without lighting. (There is always full moon....) Tunnels, on the other hand, can be pitch black, as is their nature.
