I loved It's tons of really different units each with unique playing style.
I loved kiting enemies.
I loved randomizing items, units, monsters - endless different game playing.
I loved deep strategic combat - KB was a better chess for me.

Now have a look at the infos we have about King's Bounty 2.
- beloved graphics gone
- hard to get a battlefield overview
- combat is more rpg than strategy
- beloved fantasy is gone, medieval rules now
- hex field filled with several units (KB 1 had a single unit with numbers)
- don't know if we have any randomizing but i'm in fear it's gone too

This new KB 2 is more like Blackguards than a title from King's Bounty series.
This KB 2 is not Kings Bounty.

Additional - with a release of this game as a King's Bounty sequel, 1C destroyed any chance that we will see a real KB sequel in future

I will continue playing all KB 1 until my time on this earth is coming

I have to say, King's Bounty 2 WILL have tons of units (I read russian reviews and some of them even contain artworks of dragons and the devs confirmed that they will add many units) and probably lots of spells, but nothing more, everything else being just like you said.
