To be honest, it depends on the genre. I don't need innovation in racing games, but it's very welcome in RPGs, for example.

Depends on where the series is at at the time; in the 2010s for instance Zelda was in need of innovation and reinvention, hence BOTW. On the flipside, if a series is still feeling fresh but has some rough edges, then refinement is needed.

It's possible to stray too far from what makes a series great by "innovating" in the wrong direction.
