The stamina bar is a fine idea.
The problem is not the shittyness of the stamina bar, but the shittyness of a multitude of other parts of the game, such that sticking a stamina bar in would require vast alterations. Is it possible? Yes.
I hate the weapon speeds in this game, and I also hate the seemingly random applications of knockdown and crushthrough to some weapons, but not to others. I have suggested that all weapons have crushthrough and knockdown with the probability of success being based on weight and str of attacking and defending weapons. Obviously most weapons would have miniscule chances of success, whilst others in the right circumstances would have high chances (Great long bardiche against club). A stamina bar, affected especially by weapon weight, is yet another way to make it work and be "balanced," whatever that even means.
