2) Egocentrical? How?
3) Arrogant? Yes.
4) Make people dependant on them only to abandon them? Which people besides a few of the races in "The Game" have been dependent on them?

The Ancients fought for as hard as they could but kept losing more and more "territory" to the Wraith.
For the last 4-10 or so years (I don't remember how many years it were), the Ancients had been confined inside their own city, under siege from the Wraith. They were forced to fight from within their own city, constantly having the shield up and fighting for their very survival.
As one could see from 1x17 "Before I Sleep", the Ancients were in no fighting condition. They failed to even manage to get one of their shuttles into the city safely as it was easily shot down by the armada currently orbiting Lantea.
Despite winning many battles, the Wraith kept on coming. There seemed to be no end to their number. While the Wraith just somehow massproduced and kept on coming, the numbers of the Ancients were dwindling.
They realized that the more they fought, the more Ancients lives would be lost to no avail. Their numbers had dwindled to such a degree that the people who returned to the Milky Way were among the last generations of the Ancients.
So they did not, in any way, just decide to suddenly pack up and leave without a fight.

Also, their aggressive nature was not planned.

Oma "keeps breaking the same rule" by Ascending people, even after accidentally ascending Anubis. Of course, the way The Others dealt with it was stupid, but, hey, no one's perfect.
Also, did I mention that in "Threads", when Daniel asked who the other people in the diner were, Oma answered "[the] Others"? When prompted whether or not they were Ancients, Oma said "Some of them", meaning that a possible majority of them aren't. We don't even know whether or not the Ancients are in the majority.

"The Game" civilizations were abandoned for obvious reasons (the evacuation of the city).
