Is The Ringed City harder than previous DLCs?

Yes, The Ringed City is widely considered harder than Dark Souls 3's previous DLC, Ashes of Ariandel, and even tougher than the base game, featuring densely packed areas with punishing enemies (like Ringed Knights), tricky ambushes, and some of the most demanding bosses (Demon Prince, Slave Knight Gael). Its difficulty comes from overwhelming enemy numbers, aggressive foes, and complex boss encounters that test players' skills significantly more than Ariandel's generally more straightforward challenges.

Why is pinwheel so easy?

Pinwheel in Dark Souls is so easy primarily because players usually fight him way over-leveled, after completing harder areas like Anor Londo, despite him being designed as an early-game boss with low health and damage, acting as a checkpoint reward for the difficult Catacombs before the even harder Tomb of the Giants. His weak stats (low HP, easy-to-kill clones) combined with a small arena make him trivial for characters who are already strong enough to reach him, making him feel like a joke boss when he's actually meant as a skill check/reward for lower-level adventurers.

Which Dark Souls game is the best for beginners?

For a true Dark Souls start, Dark Souls: Remastered (DS1) is best for learning foundational mechanics at a slower pace, while Dark Souls III (DS3) is great if you want more modern, refined gameplay and can handle faster action, though DS3's lore assumes DS1 knowledge.
