Here is Sirrian saying that they are planning to introduce the console task system to the PC/Mobile crowd, but not sure whether they can squeeze it in by mid-October. Definitely sounds clear that it will be an addition to that platform, and not a deletion from console.
I don’t see how this guild economy replaces the individual tasks at all. In fact, I think a player like @LYNDALE might really appreciate a little more emphasis on individual accomplishment.
