Why does my framerate drop during cutscenes?

Why does my framerate drop during cutscenes?
At first, I didn’t experience this issue, but after playing for a while, every time I enter a cutscene, the framerate drops to 40-50 FPS and stutters, even though during regular gameplay, the framerate is steady at 75 FPS. I’ve tried verifying the game files and reinstalling the drivers, but the problem still persists.

The cutscenes are rendered "in-engine" rather than being a pre-rendered video and likely use higher quality assets and visual effects than normal game play. I can say I also get a decent slowdown in cutscenes, but I can't say for sure if it is a new development or if it was always like that.

Cutscenes are mostly FPS capped, I assume 60FPS is the max you can get from my Experience even if you run the Game itself with 120FPS

"I'll try reinstalling the game. If I cap the frame rate at 60 FPS, it drops to 40-50 instead. Not sure
