I play a 3 player game as well. Usually it ends up with us using around 5-6/66 cards.
This is exactly what frustrated me about the base rules. I want more cards in play than that for sure. Seeing similar cards from game to game is not a problem for me because it's the combination of the cards and order of their appearance that makes each game infinitely varied.
I think an average of 2-3 cards per player sounds about right for where we get with the standard rules. It's not unusual to see one player get 4-5 cards, but I think having everybody get that many on a regular basis would throw the game out of whack just as badly as the 2 VP per turn in Tokyo that the O.P. was using.
With the rules as written, all the various elements are in balance, and you adjust your play each game based on circumstances. I think that produces an interesting mix of strategy and tactics.
