I really liked homm 2 and 3 (have 4 but have not played). But when I played the demo for homm v I found it so blah i never bothered to buy it. Perhaps the full game is more enjoyable (reviews suggest otherwise). However, KB-L (demo) is a *lot* of fun. I'm sure, eventually, it will get old esp since the world is fairly static but I definitely plan on buying the full game and playing it through once or twice. Folks talk about the different classes but I suspect there is another dimension with undead that is not available with the demo.
The one thing KBL misses (for me) is the castle building/tactic in combat that AOW-SM offered. On the surface it might sound similar to HOMM but the combat was much more tactic than HOMM (not sure if any of the folks on this board have played AOW-SM). Anyways for me the perfect game would be a mixture of KB-L quest system/story telling with AOW-Sm combat.
