I'd give it a 8/10.
Not too bad, although not spectacular either, with the exception of Alien: Isolation, a lone shining beacon on the creative wasteland.
This is how I'd rate 2014 games I've played and finished (of course I've played some 2013 games too, but I'm not going to list them):
I opted for "plus", and "minus" to differentiate scores
9- Alien Isolation
8+ Titanfall
8 Forza Horizon 2, Sunset Overdrive (I've yet to finish it, I'm thinking of giving it 8.5 but I'll hold off for now)
7+ Far Cry 4
7 Sherlock Holmes: Crimes and Punishments, Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare
I have Shadow of Mordor but I've just briefly checked it out, I'll later trade it in for The Evil Within so with the exception of Dragon Age: Inquisition, COD: AW and MCC I'll have played all the major 2014 releases.
Overall, this year was meant to be bigger and there were numerous high-profile delays, such as Batman, etc. I can't say I'm complaining - at least this way I was able to get all those games, and while there was hardly anything mindblowing, I feel somewhat satisfied.
