He has trying for so long to be good, but he couldn't because he was addicted to power and the Dark One curse was stronger. Now he don't have any excuses to be evil. So now can he have his happy ending. Lol, no. He destroys his happiness every time becuase he wants to. There isn't some force that makes him choose wrong. It's his fault. Season 1 and early season  4b he had no magic and he still was evil. The DO doesn't stop him from making wrong decisions. He was still the Dark One when he was outside of Storybrooke.
