They are not fundamental, lol. You think people who already dislike the game will come back because of greater rifts?
They are extremely fundamental, the pits are the least exciting thing they are adding/changing by far.
-completely reworked the codex of power and aspect system
-removed all the dumb very situational affixes in favor of making everything more universal which opens up the variety of potential builds immensely
-did the same thing with skills to make nearly everything possible to synergize with any item
-reworked the gear upgrading system
-added a new crafting system (basically yoinked Last Epoch's forging system)
-reworked every skill with the ability to scale instead of having flat damage
-added a whole other tier of affixes
-made everything tradable except uber uniques
-redesigned the leveling process and made it much more worth it to tackle harder challenges
-yeeted and deleted the (strong) possibilities of getting junk relative to the content you are doing
-added the ability to play the game zoomed out more
And they haven't even talked about the new season 4 mechanics/theme yet
