Black screen during cutscenes [SOLVED]
For anyone wondering, if you have this issue, you don't have cutscenes during the game including intro(loading screen when you start your game), delete all .mp4 files in the directory including all files and folders:

../Steam/steamapps/common/TheLongDark/tld_Data/StreamingAssets/Video/Windows

The problem was that Unity based games, are not so good with .mp4 video format. Developers "fixed" the problem by adding .webm videos to that folder but did not delete previous files. Therefore, for some users the problem still appeared. In case you do not have .webm videos in there, use CONVERTER from .mp4 to .webm, DO NOT JUST RENAME FILES!

p.s. Spent like two hours finding the solution...
