You know, it make more sense in terms of realsim, which is one of the key focuses of dark souls mechanic balance. I do medieval combat reinactmets, (not to be confused with LARP-ing) and if you're not totally braced for an attack, it will stagger you, and sometimes will regardless. add in the magically enhanced God killing beings the players are, and the fact you're using impossible great weapons, and the ability to only tank through an attack, while making an attack, makes a little more sense.
