Music volume shouldn't apply in cutscenes. Or the very least there should be independent sliders for it in the settings.
That's it. You don't have to read the rest...
I'm angry. I shouldn't post angry yet here I am. I just watched what is probably the most important cutscene in the game completely muted. I generally play with the music muted since I listen to other stuff while grinding, but when there is dialog or a cutscene the game has my undivided attention. By the time I realized that the silence wasn't an artistic choice it was too late. Of course for some reason you can't access your menu during the cutscene so you can't even fix it when you realize your mistake.
200 hours of gameplay was leading up to this moment in the story. And just like that... immersion is gone, and the only emotions I'm left with are anger and disappointment for a game I absolutely adore otherwise.
This shouldn't matter but rules are rules:
I'm playing the steam version of Witcher 3: Wild Hunt v1.32, no DLCs
Windows 10 Pro - 19043.1889
Intel Core i7-7700
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB
2x Kingston HyperX KHX2133C14/8G
Samsung SSD 850 EVO 500GB (system)
WDC WD40EZRZ-22GXCB0 (4 TB, SATA-III) (game)
