Nope, he didn't have to go and gather all the stones. His home planet had already been destroyed and he couldn't change that. 

He could simply lay on his ass and enjoy his life and rebuild for the rest of time, instead of trying to be the saviour of the world. 

You could make this criticism of nearly every character ever created.  Someone's actions are informed by who they are.  Thanos logic was that life unchecked leads to ruin, that sacrifices had to be made to value what one has.  He saw no reason to rebuild or assist because it just put off the issue for a later date.  

You can disagree with him. I do, but the idea of stating a character shouldn't be who they are because you don't like them is not a valid criticism to me.

It is criticism which goes against the villian. Thanos drives the whole plot, and he has no reason for doing so. That is what makes him a bad villain.
