20 vials is very generous but that’s not what the problem is. The problem is that they are a non-recharging consumable. Unlike estus flasks which fully recharge every time you go to the bonfire, blood vials can run out.
If it’s your first time playing, you might run out. And if you run out, you have to go through a very un-fun and time consuming farming run just to restock

Like I said…not everything is meant to be frictionless. I’m sure a lot of people think losing all your
soulsblood uh somethings? isn’t fun, either.
