I fully agree with Tibovation and echo the sentiments about overly-flashy combat.
I didn't know how to describe it myself any better, other than it feeling more like a cartoon rather than a realistic world. I love fantasy, but with a touch of reality!
Tibovation explained it perfectly, so i can only repeat what he said. Let the Warrior be a warrior, without over the top magical effects. Jumping, an Arrow pinning the Enemy down, shoving the enemy, basically all those abilities that are non-magical in nature should be represented in that way, to let the Wizard and other Spellcasters feel a lot more magical in contrast, when their spells are at work.
