It sucks huge dicks. And the worst part of it is is that it basically wards you off buying new games due to all the dlc. Do you want to buy a 70 to 80 dollar game now or do you want to buy it in 5 months with 100 dollars worth of dlc attached for 30 bucks? Because if that's what you want, you better run from spoilers.
I've taken to buying games pretty much released in PS3's infancy to make up for it. I'll have a sizable PS3 library by the time I buy another PS4 game.
I'm thinking developers were surprised of the difficulty getting games out of the door with this generation.
Overall, it's not what it supposed to be but it will get better. Unlike previous generations, this current gen is all about subtle changes to what games can do. Personally, I don't see any big changes in terms of gameplay mechanics but you will see improvement to current genres. Dead Rising 3 is a good example of that. An open world where there isn't any loading screens and zombies can follow you into buildings. It's not exicting but previous games in the series would of had a loading screen and no zombies following you.
Eventually, the idea that new generation of systems will radically alter how games are developed are starting to dwindle. The industry is still very new compared to other mediums like film and music.

Sure if you want to ignore the Wii U library's existence which so far trumps PS4 and One's current amount of exclusives. This fact would be of course commonly known if Nintendo didn't discourage free publicity.

How many good Nintendo-exclusives are there that are third-party? Serious question.

I only know two and by the end of this year, the amount will be four total. Not pretty I know. Wii U's still got good games regardless.
edit - oh wait. There was also that Lego game and if you count the Deus Ex Director's Cut, but I guess that's still not a lot in comparison but at least it's growing albeit slowly.
