I'd say my main unpopular opinion is that Dark Souls is only given the illusion of difficulty by the developers willfully keeping information from the tutorial. Have you ever seen a new player roll into an attack? Have you ever seen a new player choose to wear less armor for fast rolls?
It's almost a given that a new player will roll away from attacks (and get caught at the end of their roll) and go for mid rolling
So far, I have told 3 friends exactly how rolling works and they immediately stopped having difficulty everywhere except a few bosses.
I actually had a fairly easy time after beating Sif, because I stayed in the forest to PvP for about 10 hours of gameplay. Figured out how rolling worked. Stopped having difficulties.
