Beyond the missing clutch pedal, the difficulty is see with DCTs and autos these days for those that like shifting themselves is that the high number of gears they employ (8 and headed higher) and the way the gears are so closely ratioed to save fuel leaves you having to shift so frequently that eventually it just becomes a chore and you leave it to the car - and your engagement with the experience of driving drops as a result. This process has been reported here and elsewhere by those with 8 speed autos/DCTs.
