People who want FFXIV to harken back to FFXI have had their way and now we are getting auto-attack. Yay! Auto-attack, that's so next-generation it hurts! Let's bring this game into the next generation with auto-attack!

So how many up-and-coming games have auto-attack again? Oh yeah, like none. Because it's shit.

All of the systems in FFXIV were a response to the ones that failed in FFXI.
I don't want FFXI-2, or a time sink, I'm asking for basic UI features or text commands that its player base found convenient and hoped would show up in the next game. Auto-attack I think is better than spamming one or two, or whichever button it is people spam, but they shouldn't half ass auto attack, that would ruin the game harder, they need to seriously rework stamina before just slapping auto attack in there. Just because you don't like auto-attack doesn't mean everyone doesn't, I am a mage so I don't really see how its useful for me, but I'm sure there might be a dd or tank who wants it.
