Is Heroes VI better than all the KB games?

Yes, it's all about personal preferences.
HMM4 would have been all right, but the skill system was terrible (IMHO).

I have played all of these games; here's my quick take.

First of all Heroes II/III/WOG were the best games in the series; like King's Bounty I would just want to play "one more turn". For HOMM VI, I almost feel like I'm forcing myself to play it. I enjoyed the first Necro Campaign but find myself losing interest in the 2nd one. All of the modern King's bounty games I couldn't wait to keep playing, and have done most of them multiple times.

My 5 year old son always sat next to me playing "the horse game" (his words) but lost interest quickly watching me play HOMM.

"Just one more turn" is exactly how I feel while playing Heroes III, King's Bounty TL/AP/Cross Worlds.
