Metal Gear Solid had the same problem. Final Fantasy felt like a half assed strategy game, because of that auto-battle button. 

Which isn't mandatory and has been used in tons of other JRPGs as well, like the Persona series

Persona 3 is the only one I think, and even then you can indirectly control your allies which doesn't really make it Auto-Battle.

They have an auto-battle option in EarthBound, which is my pick for the best JRPG ever made (and the best game on the SNES). Auto-Battle is o-kay as an option.

I'm not defaming Auto-Battle, just the lack of control over your allies FF13 gives you.
