For instance, Assassin’s Creed Origins had subtitles turned off by default and 60% of players turned them on. And in games that had subtitles turned on by default, only 10% turned them off.

Few reasons why I turn on subtitles:

sometimes the dialogue is kind of boring and I just want to read and hit "next line"
sometimes it gives clues I wouldn't hear like "hunter growling" or "witch sobbing" in left 4 dead.

Yup. Cut scenes are boring. Most dialogue is pretty meh. Just let me get past it so I can do stuff again.
