You can have all the battles you want. Just attack zombies. The thing is, you have a choice--and then people complain that they haven't fought any battles in ages. What they mean is, they haven't been immediately attacked when they entered an area.
I think that was the problem, I've never been one for just going around killing everything - I prefer to wait until I am attacked. I also almost always go for the more intelligent type characters rather than tanks in rpgs. I just found it hard I guess adjusting to not being attacked randomly like in the BG series or unexpectedly and I was used to beginnings of games where you get attacked a lot early on, such as in BG2 at the beginning. I was also used to the IWD games which contained a lot of hack and slash elements. I think next time I get bored of the games I'm currently playing, I'll reinstall PS:T and give it another go because from what everyone was saying it does sound good. When I first bought it I knew nothing about it really so I think I was expecting it to be more like BG2, and thus was disappointed, rather than just treating it like an entirely different game. This of course is no fault of the game, more the reasons why I bought it I think
