someone asked at some point if sorcerer is hard.
I just beat 2nd boss with it, and meh not really. Its cool that its probably a bit more challenging than previous souls in the beginning, so its not just an easy mode for new players.
I should say any class will feel easy on second playthough since you've been there, done that. For example my first char deprived took 15 hours to do first ~5 bosses, then I restarted as warrior and caught up in 2 hours, knowledge makes the game breezy af.
Firstly you can get op weapon damage as any class with minimal investment if you do this trick I figured out by luck on my first playthrough as deprived. SPOILER
you can get astora straightsword and a raw gem before 2nd boss, combine the two and you have a very OP weapon. I had it at 200 damage with a couple upgrades before I even first killed the 2nd boss, the moveset is amazing and the damage is still decent through whole game if you don't want to invest in high str/dex, all you need is the 10/10/12 requirements.
But imo the main reason to go sorcerer is for a playthrough with completely different combat playstyle, so doing the above would kinda defeat the point. Pure spells + dagger still seems viable for bosses, and there is no capra demon in ds3. I plan on doing a full run like this, but still haven't beat main game.
