Good evening everybody! This is Aifos coming to you alive from Lordran with-

EH: "Hello, Chosen Undead."

Anyhow, anybody who's played Dark Souls I knows the Estus Flask system changed from 1 to 2. The question is simple; which do you prefer?
Explanations:
The kindling system:
[spoiler]In Dark Souls I each Bonfire had a "Humanity Level", that ranged from 1-4. Each Bonfire was at 1 by default (some were at 2), and could be increased by offering Humanity while human.
Each Bonfire only recharged you Flask to a certain amount, depending on that particular Bonfire's level.
1=5
2=10
3=15
4=20[/spoiler]
The shard system:
[spoiler]In 2 & 3, you start with a set amount of Estus Flasks, and increase them by finding Estus Shards. All bonfires restore all Flasks:[/spoiler]
My answer:
[spoiler]I prefer Kindling. Don't know why.[/spoiler]

10 RepliesCollecting the shards was more tedious than killing Pinwheel then getting 20 free heals every bonfire, that's for sure. On a somewhat related topic, what the hell was with the "cast time" I guess you could call it, that they added to the flask in 2? That thing took forever to be used and often when I bothered trying it got negated or got me killed instantly. Using it in 1 and 3 was far more intuitive and far, FAR more useful because of how fast your use time and health was healed. I guess being able to move around a little in 3 is neat, but ultimately doesn't factor in much very often.
