Just saying we won't be seeing that impressive visuals until at least a couple years in. It takes time for developers to make use of new hardware and software/tools.

By the end years of PS5, we're gonna get amazing visuals. That goes for Series X as well if Hellblade 2 teaser is anything to go by.

Thing is though... with other systems that WOW factor was there very early on. Mario 64 blew away everything on the SNES. Sonic Adventure's visuals were jaw dropping in the day. Sonic the Hedgehog was waaaaaay more impressive than Kirby's adventure (which actually launched a couple of years later). 

Not saying that PS5 won't have great looking games, but the jump just isn't as drastic.
