I had no idea what keepsakes were when I made my character. I browsed through them and thought activating one would cheapen my game experience, so I didn’t pick one. Was this a mistake?

I am playing this purely single player, I haven’t reupped my PS+ sub. Am I missing out on a key element of the game by not having multiplayer capability?

I am also playing purely single player and with these games, I'm of the opinion that single player is a better experience. Unless you have friends that you'd like to run around with. Otherwise I find the multiplayer to be very distracting and breaks up the "rhythm" of the game. 

Not sure which keepsake you're referring to. I don't think any of the keepsakes significantly alter the game experience. Some are objectively (much) more useful than others. I think the most popular are Stonesword Keys (probably the best choice) the Golden Seed (what I took) or the free runes. 

My top suggestions would be:

Upgrading weapons is just as important as upgrading your stats
Explore plenty, just following the light will be frustrating as you'll probably be underlevelled and under-equipped. 
Keep at minimum a mid-roll (equipment load >70% of max)
Experiment a lot in the early game and find what works for you, there are infinite ways to play and beat the game.
