The Article Comment feature has it's positives and negatives. The biggest positive is that it helps foster a community environment while the biggest negative is drama (I've seen Admins and other users leave Fandom for this reason, or for the maintenance of such comments).

Activity is likely to drop on the wiki to some extent if the comments are disabled, while that activity that remains may be more constructive. One of my biggest issues with the feature is the comments being right on the article. Some of these comments could be their own discussion as well (which could be a reason to look forward to the new Discussions feature).

Talk pages, for discussions that currently take place in article comments, will certainly be a nightmare to manage and organize. These pages tend to work well with older audiences.
