Rockstar's output this generation has been atrocious.

....so its just western developers that are taking their sweet time? loll 

more commonly, though there are examples of Japanese developers slowing down as games get more ambitious.

Persona 3 - Development time (2-2.5 years)
Persona 4 - Development time (~2 years)
Persona 5 - Development time (5-5.5 years)

FFXIII, XIII-2 and Lightning Returns Combined Development Time (8.5 Years)
FFXV - Development time (10 years)

But have Japanese developers been keeping a steady pace at releasing games this gen compared to last gen, or are they also slowing down as well?
