What's up with the Estus flask auto restore by killing enemies in open areas bullshit they introduced with this game?

I think it is because it's such an open world this go around it makes sense.

I really don't know, just something I read awhile back. It allows you to continue to explore areas and not be tied to one spot till you find another. From has gained my confidence they make more correct decisions rather than bad ones, we'll see.

I guess we'll have to wait and see how this one plays out, but the masochist gamer inside me is worried ;)

Masochist is the casual's label. Don't use that word. We want a challenging game.

What self-respecting DS player dies to fucking trash mobs because they are out of estus charges? No, you either die to trash with plenty of estus charges because you were being a greedy fuck and saving them for bosses or you die with plenty of estus charges because you took lethal damage from out of nowhere.

That's honestly what kills me most in Souls games. Piece of fucking cock shit ass eating whore fucks is probably 2nd.

Sure, but that's not the point. This "feature" turns every thrashmob into a walking campfire where you can replenish without the need to travel to any of the Sites of Grace. Wouldn't surprise me if they balance it a bit before release to make it less generous.

The GI guy was saying not only was this the best FROM game of all time, it was his favourite game ever. Must. Contain. Hype.

In Dark souls II you can basically kill one or two boss and buy 99 lifegems. Basically giving you an infinite stack of healing DOT items + your flask.
Also don't forget that in Demon Souls you also can do that in some way. So i'm not too worried about this refill flask situation.
