Removing or moving it in general just so new players dont wonder into a mid level dungeon available at the start of the gam is hand holding and would have destroyed the spirit of the game before it became big. And if someone feels the need to beat their head against a wall when there is another clear path to take and another kinda hidden path which is arguably worse then the catacombs then thats their own fault and again were spared the mercy of the rest of the game.
Not having something like the catacombs isn’t “hand holding” but sure

It isn’t hand holding it’s not destroying their hands.
You haven’t played dark souls so just stop. The catacombs aint even as bad as it gets so… God scrubs just need to git gud.
