I think this post is getting side-tracked. All I'm saying is that I would like auto-attack option to be there. By no means will it make the game play itself or make it too easy. Unless you've hacked all your equipment or fight enemies one at a time, you cannot win by just auto-attacking. Moving around, casting spell and fighting smart will still be necessary, not to mention all the other non-battle related things you need do to win. Those of us that want the option have our reasons and likewise those that don't, but what I'm saying is to give us the option to decide for ourselves. Is it absolutely necessary? No. Is playing the game absolutely necessary? No. But it'll be a nice thing to have and would make the game a better game.
And to whoever thinks that it will lock you into a fight while you are trying to run and get you killed, that's not how it works. Auto-attack will only happen if your character is not actively doing something, which means if you are running, auto-attack won't activate. And if you don't like it don't turn it on. But for those of us that may want to eat and play, get interrupted alot by wife and friends, don't want to retarget 30 times when faced with 30 enemies, or whatever other reason we may have, give is the option to turn on auto-attack.
