Vlad is the most metal man ever. Very based. 10/10 stay off his property.

He was quite clearly the good guy. He saved Christendom from the Turks. Maybe he got cast as a bad guy later because his methods seemed a bit extreme to the more comfortable people further west where the danger was less imminent, but he did what he had to.

I tend to assess these things from a similar lense to Robert Kaplan's Warrior Politics: Why Leadership Demands a Pagan Ethos. https://www.amazon.com/Warrior-Politics-Leadership-Demands-Pagan/dp/0375726276
Which is to say, a perfectly moral leader can be completely disastrous for the people he is responsible for and a morally flawed leader can be a powerful force for good for his people and, by extension, "good" himself.
Vlad held some challenging territory in the borderlands between Europe and Asia and stood against Turkish incursions into Europe. He was always outnumbered and rarely well supported by the rest of the continent he was defending.
I'm not sure if the impaling incident was a massive spergout or a genius bit of psyops (or maybe both) but the Turks did seem impressed and respected his ruthlessness.
So although he ended up "losing," I'd have to say not a bad guy.

To the people he ruled and protected he was an absolute hero who kept everyone in his contry safe, to the people he protected against he was a evil torturous monster unmatched in cruelty.
He's pretty dope but maybe shoving gaint spiked logs up people's assholes so they would slowly slide down until it eventually popped out there neck was a bit excessive, but who am I to say when it worked so well.

This exactly. And if any of you would not go to violent extremes when a well-armed and trained group of killers empowered by their so-called 'religion' state the intent to destroy you and everything you love and care for, I don't frankly have any use for you.
