I Became the Villain of a Romance Fantasy로맨스 판타지의 악당이 되었습니다

Ok, I actually read it some time ago and details of the story are muddled in my head, but I just saw it again and had little rant about it in my head. I stopped somewhere around 40ish chapters too, so be advised from continuing and standart !spoiler! alert.
Promising start with interesting idea, if somewhat basic: ML transmigrated into minor villain of otome game and tries escape the character's fate by eliminating his link to the game's FL - engagement. Only, FL hell bent on the opposite to ML's confussion. No wonder, as the heroine turns out to be switched too - to her time traveled future self. And FL went back not once, but twice! Her first, original timeline followed the plot of the game, her second life after time travel saw appearance of ML in villain's body. The start of they relationship was unfortunate and violent, which prompted dissolusion of the engagement as per ML wishes, but after learning about this new person and developing friendship and then feelings, FL time travels again, now with the goal to make this engagement happen, with ML non the wiser about it. All of this happens in first few chapters, setting interesting conflict of interests with two characters with significant difference in knowledge and expectation, with promise of fun comedic situations between weird couple. Good!
Aaaand then ML caves in few chapters in and just decides to go with the engagement... Ok? That was first conflict setup that author just threw away. Now ML doesn't want to escape the engagement and all shenanigans revolving around FL and just goes along with it. Fantastic. To be fair, he still thinks that fate (plot) will force them apart even if ne doesn't plays his villain role, but he also not active oposser to the events anymore and that majorly changes dynamics between main characters. Oh, by the way, comedy? Yeah, how about twenty chapters of diabities inducing sweetnes with background characters gushing about two lovebirds. Great.
But fine, they cute and the author throws few mildly interesting flashbacks that gives us more info about characters plus some action. Don't know what to feel about wanting more chapters about what happened then than what's happening now, but oh well.
Aside that the author setup the story inside an otome game which promises additional conflicts with original cast of male characters composing FL's 'harem'. And we get first glimps of it short (huh) 30 or so shapters in with introduction of first OG ML. Would ML cave in and rethink his involement with FL after incountering someone who might potentially be FL's fate (plot) choosen partner? Is he going to fight for new path and decide to screw the plot and stick with his decision despite possible problems with other male leads? Or will first OG ML mop and be sad, only to be befriended by ML and just decide to move on with no future conflict in sight?
Yeah, it's the last one. Promps to first OG ML, that seems healthy, but I don't need healthy. I need a conflict that doesn't get kicked to the curb like trash that you too lazy to even carry to the trashbin!
First two setups fot possible clashes that were established at the very beggining: conflict of interests between ML and FL and conflict between wayward ML and plot choosen OG MLs whimpered and died like my carier prospects, relativelly fast and quiet painfull. And I want to be fair to the author, I only read first 40 or so chapters, and there were much more OG MLs to come and as such potential for future drama plus some other disasters peeped from flasbacks. But I also read whole 40 or so chapters and got none or too much of what I expected from characters interactions; not whole lot of comedy, barelly any conflict and too much sugar as if I didn't have enough cavities.
By what point should you wait untill you drop something? I read somewhere that you need to read 50 pages before deciding it's not for you, metric that hard to judge with format of this site, but I would say I read just enough to be bored and being bored is not for me. Give it a take, maybe it's becomes good after chapter 41, but even if that's the case I still would judge it as bad pacing and writing. Take this whole thing with spoone of salt and sorry for any grammar and such mistakes. Thank you.
PS. Posted it on different story first, what an embarrassment

Any idea of where we can read more chs since it hasnt updated here for 2 months but it has 150+ ch?

The concept is really good. Sadly ml seems to stupid and easily manipulate by outers so far. And I really hate such types of stories. If you don't it is probably a good read though.

Rank B,(For those who want something cute and relaxing).

Rank C-,(for people who want "hot" works)

Genesis Translations... This is going to be f#cking slow

Ret*rd mc. He try to drive heroine away yet he treat them in a good way. After that, he wonder why they like him. Hr can't even confront and be straightforward

#panic# this novel is not on haitus. Its just that the release speed is slow and irregular.

Ahh I wish there were more chapters, or a normal release date. I don’t like that hiatus status at all
