When should I stop leveling up in Dark Souls?

Your level is irrelevant. It's your soul memory that matters. If you stop leveling, but keep obtaining souls, you'll eventually encounter people much higher level than you constantly. But if you use the Agape Ring to stop your soul gain, level 150-200 is the best place to stop.

What is the best thing to level up in Dark Souls 1?

Best is to either go strength or Dex, even for a first playthrough. The game has more than enough replay value to do a run with either. If you go with a dex build, leveling up strength to 14 or 16 will allow you to use most dex weapons. The uchigatana can be gotten very early in the game and is a great weapon to use.

Both are viable. The only difference is the kind of play style you want. Strength builds are designed to make short work of bosses, tank anything thrown their way, and survive for longer.

Does leveling up make Dark Souls easier?

No, nobody actually cares how you end up doing it. I mean most rpgs I've played have been able to be beaten at either level 1 or a really low level, dark souls and Elden Ring is no different in that regards. Both require skill to do but you can always make it easier on yourself by levelling up.

The higher that number in the upper left of your screen, the more defense you have against physical and elemental damage, and your Item Discovery stat increases (which means you're likely to find more items when you defeat enemies). You lose “soft” Humanity when you die, just like the Souls you're carrying.

Dexterity and Strength do not have any impact on movement/roll speed, and their only impact on swing speed is the change at whether or not you are proficient enough to use the weapon. % of Equip Load is the only thing that affects movement and roll speed (aside from the ring that changes your roll animation).

Does Dex make you swing faster Dark Souls?

No. There is nothing in this game that allows you to swing weapons faster. You're prolly thinking of the heavy swing you get when you try to use a weapon without meeting its Str or Dex requirements. Once you meet the requirements, the swing speed stays the same no matter how high you raise Str/Dex.

Can you max out all stats in Dark Souls?

Yes all classes can get 99 in all stats, but why would you want to? I thought only the classes which could reach higher levels than others could do it. There is no max level, it's just that some classes require fewer levels than others to get to. IIRC, Sorcerer requires the most level ups, at 712.
