In Act 3 of Macbeth by Shakespeare, there is drastic changes in Macbeth. He goes from being noble to untrustworthy and selfish. Although, Lady Macbeth does change a bit, the changes aren’t as drastic.
In the beginning of the play, Macbeth is a very noble and worthy man. Throughout the play, he starts to murder people just to get what he wants, even if it means killing his best friend. He turns into a nervous wreck, trying to cover up all the murders with lies so that nobody starts to be suspicious of him. He turns into a completely different person. On the other hand, Lady Macbeth is a psychotic character right from when she is introduced. She was the one who persuaded Macbeth further into killing King Duncan. She tells him he isn’t a man
Lady Macbeth progresses throughout the play from a seemingly savage and heartless creature to a very delicate and fragile woman.

In Act I,
The Tragedy of Macbeth by William Shakespeare explains how a person can show their true character upon their goal. In this story there is a nobleman named Macbeth that seeks for thriving kingship ever since he got manipulated and mind washed . Macbeth’s decision was to listen to the prophecies of the witches to become king. Doing so changed Macbeth's personality and way of thought, leading him to make inferior decisions to stay as king and showing how someone's objective can lead to life changing conclusions.
In the play Macbeth changes a lot in the story, although there was a lot to influence him to change. In the play Macbeth used to respect his king and be very loyal to him. As the story goes on he meets different people who make him think different. His first encounter with the witches made him more ambitious but he struggled to kill the king. Lady Macbeth also played a big part in changing him by telling him many times that he was still a boy and will never be a man.

His idea of becoming a man was insane and inhuman. He feels
Throughout William Shakespeare’s tragedy Macbeth, the characters of Macbeth and Lady Macbeth develop profoundly differently over the course of the play. Macbeth’s character transforms from a noble hero to an ambitious, blood-thirsty murderer. When Macbeth is on the battlefield, he is heroic and brave by defeating the traitors of King Duncan and the Norwegian Army, and he is crowned as Thane of Cawdor. Later in the play, Macbeth cold-heartedly murders his King, a woman and her children, and his own beloved friend. This illustrates Macbeth’s drastic transformation from a hero to a murderer. On the contrary, Lady Macbeth changes from a manipulative, ruthless wife, and an accomplice to murder, into a guilt-ridden, and a paranoid madwoman who commits suicide. When Lady Macbeth and her husband are quarrelling, she insults her husband’s manliness to make him commit the murder of Duncan. Later in the play, Lady Macbeth deeply suffers from her guilt, that she becomes mad. Lady Macbeth constantly sleepwalks and washes her hands of the imaginary blood of her husband’s victims and of her ambition. It is evident that over the course of Shakespeare’s tragedy Macbeth, Lady Macbeth and Macbeth develop profoundly differently throughout the play.
At the beginning Macbeth didn't want to hurt anyone, but in the middle of the play his wife Lady Macbeth had wanted to be queen so she had convinced Macbeth to kill King Duncan. He was going to go through with the plan but she made it to where he was convinced even more. The downfall was that he had been under her control so much that Macbeth had not only killed King Duncan he had also kill seven other people that had been in his way of the King. And the full change of Macbeth was that he had once been a nice man and then he had been changed into a killer just because his wife wanted to be queen. I believe that If Lady Macbeth didn't get full control over Macbeth he would still be a nice man who doesn't want to hurt anyone and if he did he
Lady Macbeth is seen as evil pious jealous and empowering who lusts for her and her husband’s position. This is visible in the following quote when speaking to Macbeth “look like the innocent flower but be the serpent underneath” this basically shows how not only is lady Macbeth tormenting Macbeth but Macbeth is feeling a sense of empowerment by his own wife and feels as if he is being humiliated by her controlling self. The technique portrayed in this quote is a simile in which lady Macbeth is comparing Macbeth to a serpent when she’s telling him to look and act innocent in front of the king despite the vile feelings he really has towards him. This is also shown through the following line quoted by lady Macbeth “unsex me here “giving that lady Macbeth is portrayed as masculine ad unnatural. It seems pretty clear that she is speaking to the spirits telling them to unsex her which basically means to make her into something other than a woman as she keeps in her mind that giving birth and nurturing a child interferes with her evil plans. Therefore, lady Macbeth doesn’t change as much in this play as Macbeth does.
