The changes look awesome. I wouldn't pay for a game that hasn't changed at all since the last installment.

 

That is what new IPs are for.

Sequals should build on the previous game and improve what was wrong with it, not build upon a different game entirely.

Sequels and franchises are for cashing in on popularity of the IP.  Nothing more, nothing less.

This is why we have quite a few genre confused games like Castlevania Judgment. 

A fighting game with Castlevania characters would likely sell much better than a fighting game with a new IP.
