Yes, I completely agree, more action is needed. The 3D games have never had as much action and combat as the 2D ones, partially because of technical limitations. At this point they should be able to do plenty of onscreen action and combat all at once. If you can't, just make it 2D! (of course I'd prefer that anyway)
