I started a similar post:
https://www.gog.com/forum/general/how_large_is_my_collection
1. What is the size of your library? (number of games vs GB/TB)
I've got ~450 games, if I get absolutely everything which is all three OSes and all the languages I could list there, including extras, it's about 3.3TB for me using the gogrepoc tool.
2. What's your storage? (external drive? cloud?)
Planned: Internal drive with an enclosure or only used for the purpose of downloading and updating. I do not want to keep it in use and have it spin-up on boot.
3. Do you download all games owned? (or some specific subset? how do you select?)
Planned: will download everything most likely. Thinking about downloading only english language for most of the stuff, and manually selecting a few games which I'd like multiple languages of.
4. What do you download? (installers? Win and/or Linux? extras?)
Planned: everything.
5. How do you handle updates? (auto, specific command passed periodically? manually? how often?)
Planned: As far as I can tell, the gogrepoc tool allows for checking only updated titles (by GOG). I would likely do it manually a few times a year.
6. Do you use any additional management system for your game library? (spreadsheet with all games listed, csv list of games, online services, tags on GOG etc.)
Planned: Not using anything, because I haven't been able to find a good solution for me. I want to be able to plan all my games across consoles and platforms as well.
