Should I just side step him at this point, and go directly to my landlord?
As a former landlord, let me give you the landlord's point of view:

"I don't care what your problem is as long as I get my rent from either or both of you. You leave, he pays. He doesn't pay, I sue both of you, get judgments and collect from whoever's got the money."

What should I be prepared for if come move out time I have no one, and stop paying rent?
Your roommate will have to pay the full rent or be evicted. He will have good cause to sue you for indemnification - and win.
