I haven't given the sale a proper look, but so far it looks like I might end not buying anything.

Between games that are new and still cost more than I'm willing to spend, and older games like Civ VI or XCOM 2 that I'm not buying because I've learned the lesson and I'm waiting for a GOTY edition, I can't seem to find anything that entices me to buy.

I don't know, maybe I'll get the Definitve Edition of Sleeping Dogs since it's cheap and I truly enjoyed the game. Replaying it with prettier graphics could be tempting.

Stick to Civ 5 for now.  If you mainly play single player Civ 6 has even worse AI.  They will annoy every turn.  They will talk shit for no reason or even praise you nonstop.  They will ask for resources constantly and even questionable requests like asking for horses in the industrial and modern era.  Basically you will want to declare war on them just to shut them up.  Don't get me started on the world congress either.  Civ 5 least had some stuff you cared about voting.  Now you'll be forced to vote on a bunch of shit you don't even care about constantly.

Some of the new ideas for 6 are kind of neat but overall its like they dumbed it down yet made it unnecessary complicated with a bunch of shit you don't care about. 

Yeah, I've tried Civ VI thanks to one of those free to try weekends, and it didn't feel as polished as Civ V. It's one of the reasons to wait for the GOTY edition, to give them time to balance and fix all that doesn't work.
