We said Walts character wasn't flawed at the beginning but actually I think his flaws were always there and what led him down a path he never needed to go down. This bring me back to the hate Skylar always got for not appreciating how Walt was "providing" for them etc. He didn't have to do what he did, his ex business partners/friends offered to give him a job and when he refused they even offered to cover the costs of his treatment but he was too proud and bitter to accept their help and instead decided to make and sell drugs
