Discussions is coming, but of course you're not forced to use it, if you're not interested. For now, adding Discussions to the wiki will change very little - the only difference you'll see is a Discussions post count in addition to your edit count on user profiles, and a footer module with some Discussions conversation previews.

Your talk pages won't change in any way, and by the time the forums migrate to Discussions, that feature will be further developed, too, so it will be better suited to replace the forums.
