Seymour is the one who sees this as wrong, and tries to convince everyone that they should end it all, as this world is nothing but an endless cycle of pain and death.

Seymour is hardly the bad guy here.
See how easy it is to compare Marche and Seymour? Either Marche is a bad guy, or Seymour is a good guy. No matter how good Marche's intentions were, no matter how much he thought that you need to live in reality to be a good person (which apparently Square did a good enough job of convincing most people who played the game as well) he was still working against his friends wishes, despite their protests, and their attempting to kill him. He was working towards a self-serving goal that he "thought" was best for everyone, and didn't mind if that meant going against his friends wishes.
