From what I can tell the bonfires serve as checkpoints throughout the game, but I'm not very far into it and there might be a way to travel maybe? Through the bonfires? I have no idea, this game tell you jack sh*t about how things work.
I don't know if there is a hub or if there are city like areas or something like a safe haven somewhere. It is not very structured in location compared to Demons Souls. All I was told is I have to ring a couple bells and something will happen.
Before the PS3 everyone was nice to me :(
