Plus they ignored the strategy required to figure out how to set things up to get that type of play experience. Most griping about that I later found out had just grabbed the "right" Gambit set-ups from some walkthrough, so of course you're going to feel like it's too easy and simplifying the game too much if you don't do any of that trial and error work.

They would have to give XIV a more intuitive interface, though. That was my one gripe with XII's system.
It did play every encounter for you, aside from some optional bosses. However it would be very welcome in XIV given playing as a non tank with Squadrons you can basically clear dungeons while only using the controller to move and DPS with Trusts is the same thing. I'd very much prefer a customizable AI as complete as the gambit.
