I actually agree with you on most points, I am unsure of what I think regarding the lack of individual initiative. That could go either way, I think I would need to actually try it to get a feel of it.
As for the rest, I am really hoping that they turn up the DND quite a notch up as well. I mentioned this elsewhere, but having the game without all of the core classes feels like a crime.
I have no doubt that there will be a lot more races/classes in the final release. They are likely just starting with those six for early access as they don't want to give away too much content at once.
