I think it's when you have a game based on pure fantasy and not realistic concepts such as sports and warfare, that has a yearly iteration that remains mostly unchanged, only then it is unacceptable to milk the franchise.

Conversely, is it bad for a franchise to undergo major change and alienate fans in the proccess?

Damned if it does, damned if it doesn't.
