They said they are examining on it, they didn't confirm that it's a guaranteed feature.

There are MMORPGs without auto attacks that work, and they happen to be more engaging/require bit more strategy than you claim. Allods Online, DCUO, Dragon Nest, TERA, RaiderZ, WH40KDMO etc. are either doing that, or aiming for that.
