It's only the second movie and they decided "Oh let's make Ren the real main antagonist." so they kill him off partway through. Either they are going to make a plot twist where Snoke is somehow still alive or they build up a greater threat becasue Ren being the main antagonist doesn't work. He is the anti-villain/tragic villain of this trilogy  The fallen hero like Vader. He's not big bad material where as Snoke could have been. You need to watch the movie to understand. The film seems to make it clear that Ren is beyond saving at this point. Plus, his motivates differ a bit from Snoke's.
