Mods are a suggestion I hadn't thought about much. Sometimes I do forget thay I'm on a PC.
Because different equipment and stats can make you tankier
I wouldn't say you're functionally limited, unless you want to make a min-max build of sorts.
I've only played DS3, but I assume the following is the case for the other games too. The stat patterns are what you expect from a game with RPG characteristics. Choose attack speed or attack damage and lightweight armor with little protection or sturdy but heavy armor.
You only become slow if you maximize your equipment load. If you keep it under 66% (iirc) then your roll is the standard one and has i-frames. This means that you can become tankier if you choose a light weapon, like an one-handed sword or a dagger.
