Very very easy. If you just open a case and look inside it looks intimidating as hell. Crazy wires and electronic shit everywhere. Really though it's pretty simple. Mostly about popping components into the motherboard and connecting things to the power supply.
With a guide you should have no issues at all.

Not that hard. Most of the effort goes into selecting parts.
However, there are a couple things that are tricky or nerve-wracking, or that can be if you're inexperienced. I've built maybe 4 or 5 PCs over the years, and installing the heat sink is still an irritating experience.

can be easy, can be a massive headache if you screw up or have to troubleshoot bad parts. not worth it.

REPORT:
Last night I built my own PC completely from scratch for the first time in my life - when I was a kid I tinkered with some 486-based and later Pentium MMX systems but those were barebones kits.
I migrated my hard drives and GPU, so that cut down on setup time - no OS install necessary.
System runs fine - games no longer FPS crash, etc. But my CPU temps are too high. Not sure what the problem is but I'm looking into it.
Total setup time was like 3+ hours though, several moments when I shit my pants: accidentally removing mobo backplate without realizing my CPU cooler screws into it, forgetting to install a mobo riser towards the bottom and having to pray it didnt crack when I plugged in stuff, forgetting to remove two of the metal plates in the rear panel to make room for my video card, etc.
Absolute worst part was trying to get the shitty IO plate to pop into place. My case was not taking it well and I got angry and forced it in at one point but cut my finger, creating a deep gash.
VERDICT:
Got everything correct and system booted up on first attempt. No major issues except CPU running hot and a cut middle finger. Took 3+ hrs but subsequent builds will prob be half that.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND BUILDING YOUR OWN PC.
