I sure preferred the Merlin from the first three seasons when he stood up for what he thought was right and when he defended his moral standarts. A ruthless Merlin is not believable nor is it what made the show so good and what it used to be in the first place. I'm very annoyed that maturity is confused with cruelty and ruthlessness. Generally, people stick to their personality their whole life and only very unusual and terrible and/or drastical things could really turn a good-hearted person into a ruthless person or could turn a selfish and ruthless person into a saint. It seems that "Merlin" has changed to just another medieval drama and lost its unique style.
