>>But then you miss out on the story.

Very rarely do I care.. I am wanting to blow things up, shoot something, etc.

if I want the story I can just go find the YT Video someone made of all the cut scenes played back to back...

//for the record, I am the type that loves spoliers, and reads about the ending of a movie while I am watching it... it does not "spoil" it for me.

I enjoy spoilers also. But if the game is story-driven, then I do feel skipping cutscenes makes me miss out on the story or become confused and start to care less about the game (e.g. Diablo IV)

But yes, a point I made in my original comment is that this all depends on the specific game and your circumstances whether and how much sound you listen to.
