A lot of these stories feature the "system windows" as some sort of crutch to force things to happen or to get things going faster, but this is somehow even more the case here. The only reason he's going to do anything is because a magic window tells him to. The entire premise is "an omnipotent magic thing you can 100% trust told you how to go through the story". This fucking sucks.

It's boring. I want him to feel like he needs to do it, I want him to waver and start doubting himself, I want him to make actual decisions, I don't want the writer to insert himself in there and tell him to do it.

I've always wondered, can't he just farm evil points by harrasing random people on the street or he can only get them from the main heroines?
I would def farm points by doing things like givin laxative laced bread to homeless people or something like that.

Right, you bullying her is what would make her kill you despite her not doing that before
Not you know, you literally killing everyone and ending the world
This shit literally looks like a talentless version of Ore no Shibou Flag ga Todomaru Tokoro wo Shiranai. But instead of some in-world explanation for the things that happen throughout the story, we have a game fucking system that does all of this..
That one turned into complete shit too, and game reincarnations are always shit

most of them figure out that he's not actually a bad guy but he just tanks the penalty, the saintess and the purple haired girl use loopholes to get around the penalty because the demon god, who is the one issuing the penalties, can only oversee them while they are under the sun, so they use tricks so they only know the truth at night
I've been reading the wn and the story is miserable. MC gets perma dicked each chapter.
The system is a scam and only offers dogshit rewards while halving his lifespan each time someone figures out mcs real intentions.
Never have I went from ughhh to Ohhh that's kinda cool in such a short span of time

I would advice to read the WN instead. This series gives you the average long strip experience. Tons of plot holes, decisions by the MC are not (or poorly) explained. Everything appears kinda arbitrary without much thought put into.
i dont know if its the translator but i read the light novel version and it doesnt seem that good to give up reading with artwork of this version.
im only a few chapters in so it might also get better the further i go

Considering we sahis flashback, where he stomped tge butler against the floor and berated her: he's not really a good guy, at all.

Imma stop reading here.
To be honest, this is like a story for the following fans of the novel. His decisions and manners may come across like that, but he is just genuinely determined and good-willed. In the novel, his deliberation is much more elaborated and hopefully later the manhwa can show his internal conflicts and struggles to act villainous. To show some examples of how good he is and his struggles: At first, in the first timeline, he regrets his actions immensely and wishes to end it all but through the constant support of his father and friends, he carries on and there are multiple instances of that. Secondly, he secretly does a lot of good deeds and heck he even makes a cover to do good deeds while being unnoticed. Thirdly, he is extremely miserable, he suffers a lot from many things (depression, pain and trauma) and he might look stupid but his actions are explained in great details in the novel so he is by no mean bland. In addition, the story is much more complex than you think and there are a lot of foreshadowing (at least in the novel that is).

So he had to be a sadistic asshole and kill everyone in his previous life. Just to open a hidden route where he has to act like a sadistic asshole in this new life. Where as if he's discovered he gets several penalized until the demon lord is killed. Did I get the gist of it? Sounds like a dogshit plot and something from China or Korea but not Japan so I'm shocked.

It does make sense. Earlier, he chose a route of an ultimate traitor. His final victory was to betray the demon queen, after he had betrayed every human in the world, including his friends and family. Apparently even the demon queen never saw that coming. What kind of reward would one get for such a traitorous way of life? Obviously a reward fitting for someone capable of being a murderous traitor. This time the more openly a scumbag he is, the more the system will grant him points. It's perfectly logical.

Besides, the ancestor directly told him the second life would just give him another big challenge.
