If you still have trouble getting the game to detect your controller, make sure Steam controller configuration isn't automatically picking up some community template for the game, a lot of those just bind keyboard keys to your controller.

Note that the tutorial button prompts are for mouse/keyboard only. I recommend following the original PS2 scheme. Make sure your controller is plugged in/turned on before starting the game as it only checks it during start up, then go to the options/controls and set the button mappings. This includes both old DInput controllers as well as modern XInput controllers and also whatever is supported by Steam (DualShock, DualSense, Switch Pro etc).
