What the fuck was his problem?

Growing up poor, abused, and with slight psychopathic tendencies tends to do that. You get somebody that trusts nobody and thus rarely makes meaningful, healthy connections with other people.

He was a meanie. A meanie that went from being a little bully, to a badass vampire, to some sort of prophetic messianic figure. A big meanie.

Was his backstory being this reasonable an accident?

No, there's tons of panels referencing these traits, it just takes careful reading. Speedwagon grew up in terrible conditions and hated rich assholes, but he sided with Jonathan and said that people like Dio were simply born evil. He may have had many minions, women and groupies, but in the end, he's only had two people he genuinely cares for, Jonathan and Pucci.

>Pucci
is that what his mother was called?

>>143249216
A better question was, "what was his goal?" I think it went from
>inheriting the Joestar fortune
to
>taking over Europe with vampire zombies
to
>creating his "world"
Whatever that means

Made in Heaven essentially makes you God, since it involves creating an absolute fate that only the user can control.

Consider it him gradually increasing his scope.

And a literal god, though this was can be canon or not

>>143249970
Obviously his ambitions grew every time he became more powerful, you wouldn't settle for a little inheritance when you can create vampires or stop time

Pucci is the Priest in Part 6. Dio's best friend.

He's just an asshole. That's really to it. He's just a huge gigantic asshole.

If you read Akari's interviews, he explains that DIO is just pure ID. By all standards, he should be a generic villian, but what makes him so amusing is that he's so over the top, and Akari's writing adds such a flair to characters like him.
