One of the changes to DS2 from DS1 is that, with a few exceptions, weapons no longer have hand tethered movesets. As such it's possible to play left-handed, have a shield in the right hand and a weapon in the left hand. The only real disadvantage I found is that, aside from right handed thinking being kind of ingrained, the few times I tried it I could not perform crit attacks like backstabs and ripostes with a left-hand weapon.

This came to after thinking about an LoZ build. Have you every tried playing a character as left-handed? (Aside from Majestic Greatsword where it is less effective to use the right hand)
