I blame that on typical Japanese writing, for a lot series MC is a goody two shoes who forgives and trusts anyone, I'm actually surprised dude went ahead with his revenge :vYeah, but his point still stands. Not taking his gender into account, the experiences he's had throughout his life should've influenced the way he behaves in the present time. Not only did he go through horrible things in the dungeon, being betrayed over and over again due to making the wrong choices with the two girls caught in the loop with him, his entire existence before being tossed into the dungeon would leave ANYONE with a sense of distrust towards most people, especially strangers. Also, not for anything but suddenly bringing up your OH SO TRAGIC story to earn sympathy and trust is off putting as hell. Survival is the name of the game, and it's a game he should be an expert on. By this point he should really be strong and wise enough to survive without relying entirely on loop knowledge. Remember, most of the people he ever knew were pieces of shit, and even the ones he considers "decent" like the vampire girl and the hero girl can go off the edge and turn into psycho killers at the drop of a hat. No reason to believe he can trust the hero and company without question, especially when some of the party members have shown clear animosity towards him.
If I had to guess I think the excuse is exactly because it's the hero party, so due to usual Japanese writing he doesn't even consider they might not be good people, they're the heroes after all lol
It probably helps that he's in a different era altogether where there's no stigma against him, so we can probably assume, perhaps even should, that his life in the past was overall pretty ok to how it was before being sent into the dungeon
Seriously though, I'm still surprised he didn't go typical Japanese protagonist being more forgiving than fucking Jesus and just let the village get away with their bullshit, cause that's generally the way it goes in a lot of mangas
