[General] Why are "old gods" seemingly so much more evil?

Lovecraftian gods, or the titans in greek mythology. Actually maybe the idols in islamic stories too. Don't get me wrong, greek gods like Zeus are assholes too, but they don't seem to want to destroy the world at least. I assume older gods lose power due to a drop in worshippers, but what causes that?

The new gods are closer to men, they have the passions and fears of mankind, they know courage and succumb to envy.  Though they may be capricious and cruel, they do so for reasons we can understand, and even prepare for.  They can be appeased by sacrifices or sated by having eaten their fill.  It may be that they draw power from worship, or it may just be that their godly egos love being worshipped so much they prefer men existing to not existing.

The old gods want none of that.  *Feel* none of that.  Most don't even know mankind exists, and the ones that do consider us a curiosity at best.  This is the best known trait of Lovecraftian gods, whose Eldritch power is so vast it could annihilate us with a thought, and whose motivations simply do not involve considering men.  If we are harmed by them, it is by accident; there is nothing we've done to provoke them, and there is nothing we can do to appease them.
