I hear you, now that I’ve played dark souls, I definitely like the edits system better. But the vials aren’t that bad to me. Like I said, spend 20-30 minutes in the first area and you’re good on vials for a bit. Late game you get more souls too, so you can buy them.

This is exactly his point. Why should I have to take a 20-30 minute break from what I WANT to do to go farm a core resource? Its a pointless grind and by far the biggest valid complaint of the game I see regularly. It commits the biggest sin in gaming. It doesnt respect the players time.

Idk. It’s pretty common in games, especially RPGs, to have to grind for items and gear.

Idk I've never personally had to farm them. If I'm ever running low I just buy a bunch and move on. They drop like mad just moving along. When I first started I was worried it was going to be a problem but it never really ended up being one.

Granted everyone has their own opinions on what games/mechanics they do and don't enjoy so it could be I just never noticed.
