I can't say I've seen such complaints in recent memory with how the game is now.
To back this point up, it's actually pretty crazy when you look back at fights like Clownka and just how hard he used to smack tanks down with auto attacks alone during the floor intermissions.

You see the intermission and next floor coming, no mechanics for a moment? Sweet time to slurp some coffee, but then reality came crashing down like Kefka's boot on your tank and you're having to Bene them out of oblivion as they are screaming over TS.

Good times
